Enrich Your Experience
There are plenty of extra curricular activities to get involved in while studying Combined Honours.
The Student-Staff Committee
You can apply to be a course representative, which would allow you to attend Committee meetings. You'll be responsible for representing the views of the students on your course.
Course reps meet with staff at a Student Staff Committee meeting to discuss ideas and issues. The Committee will carry out any necessary actions to come out of the meetings.
You'll also work to develop new and innovative ideas to improve the experience of students on the course.
