International Students Society - Magee

AIMS

To build an International Community where all International Students are welcome, as well as home students who are interested in learning more about cultural diversity and making international friends.

PURPOSE

We represent the interest of International Students on campus, with the belief that diversity and cultural exchange enriches the University experience for all students. We also strive to build a community that brings together students from different cultural backgrounds and perspectives to make the transition to University life less daunting. We offer a variety of social events and activities throughout the year, to form a supportive and engaging network of internationally minded students thereby creating lasting memories. This society currently exists in Magee Campus, and we aim to extend its existence to other Ulster University Campuses. We encourage all international students to come be a part of our exciting journey.
