Meet your Sports Reps!

Caoimhín here, VP Sport! If sport is part of your life at Ulster, you’ll know how much it can add to your university experience: training after class, away fixtures, club nights, new teammates & the chance to try something completely new. It's important that your voice is heard when it comes to sport at Ulster! I’m really excited to introduce our 12 Sport Reps

Apply to be a Buddy Volunteer!

If you are a returning student who feels equipped to help a fellow student settle into University Life please read on and find out how you can apply to be a Buddy Volunteer!
