Description
The University of Bristol Commercial Awareness Society was founded in 2018, pivoting around students interested in law, business and finance. Our intention is to promote meaningful engagement with commercial affairs to equip you with the skills and knowledge necessary to apply and demonstrate your understanding of dynamic business environments to enhance your employability further.
The society prioritises four key areas:
-
Careers - This year, we anticipate to offer a variety of career opportunities ranging from commercial law to investment banking events to introduce our members to the different industries and application advice. Our goal is to hold virtual and in-person events with the largest international firms, including the Magic Circle and the ‘Big 4’.
-
Information - One of our key objectives is to ensure that our members are updated with commercial affairs and application deadlines. By having a calendar on our website, along with bi-weekly email reminders, we hope to provide our members with a range of resources to enhance employability further.
-
Workshops- This year we do intend to collaborate with other societies and firms to offer workshops throughout the academic year to push commercial awareness in anticipation for a career in the respective practice area. We have already organised workshops for after freshers. More information can be found on our instagram.
-
Diversity & Inclusion - As a diverse committee, it is a paramount objective of our society that international students and individuals from a range of backgrounds are supported. Following this, to cater for differing socio-economic backgrounds, we have decided to make the membership free and available to all degree disciplines.
Membership is available for all students, so become a member of our community! If you want to know more, check out our social media below or email us.
