What is Mix and Match?

It's a social networking scheme run by the International Office.  The scheme is to help new and current students meet and talk about anything from daily life in the UK to course lectures.  We have almost 1300 members from around the world and, who knows, you could make a friend for life!

What type of events are on offer?

We run events throughout the academic year that encourage our members to make friends and learn about other cultures.  We have held cooking competitions, sporting events, cafés and cultural exhibitions.
