Student Club
The NDCN Student Club organises regular academic and social events that bring together students, early career post-docs and staff from across the Department. They have an entertainment budget of £250 per term (excluding the purchase of alcohol) for social events and can apply to the department for further financial support for e.g. organising speaker events with a reception.
The Student Club is dedicated to supporting the interests of NDCN postgraduate students. They are your channel to voice any concerns or opinions within the Department to the Graduate Studies Committee and other senior management.
