FIELD VISIT ETIQUETTE

Behavior Tips for Field Visits

1. Be Respectful

Remember you are representing your College—your manners matter.
Carry your ID Card, or some proof of identity on Field Visits
Greet guides, staff, and officials politely. A simple “Good morning” or “Thank you” goes a long way.
Respect the local culture or workplace environment—be sensitive to customs, language, and dress codes.
Show respect also to your classmates. When on visit avoid unnecessary mischief and behave in a respectful manner towards each other. You are all on a visit to learn and gain knowledge. Make the visit an educational and knowledgeable experience for each other.
Take care of all your classmates and stay together. While the teacher is with you, it may be difficult for him or her to manage the crowd. Do not increase the trouble but be a helping hand.

2. Show Genuine Interest

Maintain eye contact and an attentive posture (no slouching, yawning, or looking at your phone).
Avoid whispering or chatting when someone is speaking.
Nod, smile, and respond—small gestures show that you are engaged.

3. Communicate Professionally

Ask questions politely, don’t interrupt.
If something isn’t clear, frame your query respectfully (e.g., “Could you please explain that part again?”).
Use courteous language—avoid colorful words, jokes, or casual comments that might seem disrespectful.

4. Be Responsible

Follow instructions carefully, especially in sensitive areas (labs, industries, cultural sites).
Stay with your group—don’t wander off or distract others.
Be mindful of personal space—avoid pushing, crowding, or blocking views.

5. Practice Self-Discipline

Keep your phone on silent unless you are using it for notes or photos (with permission).
Avoid eating, chewing gum, or being casual in field visit settings.
Manage your energy—be attentive throughout, not just at the beginning.

6. Show Gratitude

Thank guides and staff at the end. It leaves a good impression.
Appreciate small details, even if the visit feels routine - hosts notice when students are grateful.

7. Reflect Your Best Self

Think of the field visit as a real-world classroom. Your behavior now reflects how you might act in internships, jobs, or professional visits later.
Carry yourself with confidence but stay humble and curious.

A good field visit is not just about what you learn, but also how you conduct yourself. People often remember the students who were attentive, respectful, and genuinely curious.
