Welcome to Intercultural Engagement!
At Students’ Union UCL, we bring students together through culture, language, and unique extra and co-curricular opportunities. From language and cultural societies to UK trips, global exchanges, hackathons, summer schools, leadership training, and major festivals, these programmes can help you make friends, connect across cultures, build real-world skills, and experience new places.
Get Involved with our programmes
Language and Culture
Practice languages, join conversation cafés, and explore different cultures through low-cost, sessions run by fellow students. Whether you’ve always wanted to learn a new language, want to brush up on some phrases ahead of a trip, or work towards fluency – we've got something for you!
Discover the UK
See beyond London with low-cost trips across the country. From festive markets to historic cities, it’s a chance to explore, feel at home, and make memories with new friends.
International Opportunities
Expand and enhance your UCL experience with international trips and global opportunities ! From international hackathons to theatrical summer schools, discover new countries and cultures while building up your skills and confidence.
Leaders in Dialogue
Through experiential learning opportunities and a bespoke training programme, students can deepen their knowledge of division and conflict, develop their awareness of the complexities around navigating freedom of speech, build the skills needed to tackle difficult conversations, and enhance their facilitation and influencing skills.
