Católica Global School of Law welcomed the new 2022/23 class

“This is the start of a transformative year in your life”, Católica Global School of Law (CGSL) Dean Miguel Poiares Maduro remarked in the Welcome Session the school organized for its new L.L.M. students. “We want to prepare you for what is coming in terms of work, but also in terms of the necessary balance between work and social life. No hard work is successful without time to have fun and to make friends”, he added.

On September 19th, CGSL welcomed the new 2022/23 class, the most diverse in the history of the school, with students from 4 continents and 15 nationalities. The welcome session also included words by Tito Rendas, Executive Dean.

In the afternoon, the students headed to Costa da Caparica to participate in team-building activities. As part of the national coastal cleaning week, they took part on this initiative and made a contribution for a better, cleaner world. With the help of geocaching, they managed to collect a considerable amount of garbage that was scattered on the streets.

To end the Welcome Session in the best way, the students had the opportunity to take a dip in the sea.
