Welcome to the University of Oregon! We’re so excited to welcome you home to Eugene. IntroDUCKtion is about helping you understand what it means to be a Duck both inside and outside of the classroom. We’ll share tips for student success, help you understand what it takes to earn your degree, and introduce you to programs, resources, and departments that are here to help. We’ll also teach you about some traditions at the UO and how to navigate life as a Duck.
All sessions are required for students.
