Opening meeting and welcome party

On Monday (July 24) before the classes there will be a short Opening meeting starting at 8:45 in the Lecture hall on the ground floor of the venue at the faculty (Zorana Đinđića Street 2). There will be a reception/registration desk at the entrance for those who are not staying at the dorms. If you would like to walk together, a few local students will show us the way to the faculty, setting off from the dorm at 8:15 on Monday morning.

In the evening, there will be a Welcome party starting at 20:00 at Atrijum, which is right in the middle of our campus, very close to the Faculty. This is the location: https://goo.gl/maps/Q7XBQLCXYaVFLauN6.
