Whether you are a first year student or somebody in the final year of your degree, you all have something to offer... experience. We want to use your experience to help spread the word about BG.

As a Student Ambassador you will work with students who are thinking about higher education or applying to BG. You will see your confidence grow as you inspire people to think about their future and you will really feel you are making a difference, your skills and knowledge will expand as you meet Student Ambassadors from other courses and year groups where you will share good practice along the way.
