Finding an anchor in a key group of like-minded friends is the ultimate way to enhance your overall university experience – and getting involved with different clubs is the best way to do so!

Our Student Life Commitment
We’re taking a renewed approach to student life, focusing on a series of key commitments to our valued undergraduate students.
- You'll be assisted and guided through your transition to university, especially in your first semester
- Develop a connection and sense of belonging with your peers and the wider University community
- Have access to a network of advisers and mentors for personalised advice to ensure you make the most of your study and engagement opportunities
- Have a transformative experience intellectually as well as personally, through excellent and challenging teaching and learning
- Become active in responding to the needs of the local and global community through volunteering, service and social entrepreneurship
- Be recognised for your individual and group achievements over the course of your degree.
New initiatives are already underway, which we will continue to develop and implement throughout 2020–21 to support these commitments.
