About Us
The Peer Network is a team of current UTS students who assist commencing students with the initial transition to university at Orientation. We’re an energetic, outgoing and friendly group dedicated to make university life for new students as easy as possible.
At Orientation, we help new students by leading campus tours, staffing the Orientation helpdesk, serving free coffee at the coffee cart, mingling at official welcomes, answering questions, and more.
Peer Networkers can also volunteer throughout the session at Peer Network Cafe, a weekly coffee drop-in for commencing students to help them build connections as they start their university journey.
Being a Peer Networker comes with a range of benefits, including training, special events, certificates and recommendations, networking advantages and, of course, the famed orange t-shirt.
We are all current students, so don’t hesitate to approach us with any questions you may have about the university – just look out for our instantly-recognisable bright orange t-shirts at Autumn or Spring Orientation.
Peer Networkers play a crucial role in helping new students gain a sense of belonging at UTS. They also get to practice their communication and leadership skills during Orientation, as well as make new friends along the way!
