Student Ambassadors

A group of student employees

Student Ambassadors are central to the work of Student Recruitment at LSBU. As university employees they share their own experiences of coming to university to encourage local young people and adults to take advantage of the benefits Higher Education (HE) can bring. They are often the public face of the University – representing the University at HE fairs, Faculty Open Days and on the front desk in our Admissions and Recruitment Centre.
