Clubs and Societies

Join in, get more out

Discover a vibrant community of over 85 student groups and connect with like-minded individuals who share your interests, passions, and backgrounds. Or start your own group.

Whether you have a fascinating hobby to share, a burning interest to discuss, or a desire to support a worthy cause and make a positive impact – joining a student group is the answer. You can also connect with people who share your culture or build your academic network and gain real-world experience.

In a student group, you'll have the chance to attend meet-up events, participate in impactful campaigns, march for important causes, celebrate together, and engage in meaningful volunteer work.

Join us in making a difference, finding like-minded individuals, and creating unforgettable memories.

"I’m really involved in the criminology and sociology society. They hold events like workshops and guest lectures. Plus I get to apply what I've learned in my course to real-life cases."
