Events & Competitions

Our events

The Education Committee runs high-energy, student-powered activities all year. All of our events are education focus, wether that be to explore current studies or connect them with the future. Our events are here to aid and improve your studies in any way we can! It is you, the student who can really make a change by participating in the events.
