���سԹ�

Make the most of your time at university and join a student club or society. Events and activities are held throughout the year, involving Te Kura Umanga | UC Business School and other partners.

There are some clubs and societies that are just for business and economics students. Others like ���Գٰ�é and Global China Connection (GCC) have members from across the University, so you'll get to meet a wide range of people. So if you're new to UC or returning, pop in to see the club executives or email them, sign up and get involved in some of the many academic and social activities on offer this year.

Women in Business

UC Women in Business is all about “creating the movement”. The movement is not about the person who starts it, but the next person who joins in. We have the aim of removing internal and external barriers that women face in the workforce. Essentially, as a university and student-led organisation, we are intending to build the start of the pipeline, with the end of the pipeline resulting in high powered female leaders in senior roles.��
