This is a fantastic opportunity for students

More information

Student groups are run by UCL students and facilitated by Students’ Union UCL. The Union is an educational charity and part of how it supports the education of students at UCL is through facilitating a diverse range of opportunities for students to run, join and experience different interests, groups and activities. Each student group decides its own events, activities and views (within our risk management framework).

Student groups are intended to represent the full range of views amongst our diverse student community. The Union does not endorse, approve or speak for any student group, and their statements and activities do not represent the Union’s position.
