BAME Student Community

Introducing the Life Sciences BAME Students’ Community, providing a safe platform for you to share your experiences, concerns and ideas.

The School of Life Sciences is launching a platform for BAME students to regularly meet up, share ideas and concerns, support one another, run events and more. The group will be part of our Life Sciences Student Experience activities, with a focus on the following themes:

• Social – Participation in celebration/social events
• Educational – Sharing innovative ideas
• Development – BAME Buddy Scheme 
• Communication – Annual event showcasing BAME achievements
• Leadership – Playing an important role as a representative of this group
• Networking – Network with other students (UG and PG)

Your feedback would be extremely helpful for us to shape our curriculum and culture with an aim to create a more inclusive educational environment within the School.

If you are interested in joining the group, please sign up using the form below. We'll then be in touch with more information and details of a first meeting.
