This year, MULS has undergone a complete transformation in how we support and develop our members’ commercial awareness. We are taking the initiative to rely less on what we can get from firms, to what we, as Committee Members who have been successful in securing training contracts, vacation schemes, insight schemes, and open days, have practically learned that translates into useable and tested advice that is guaranteed to support our members in being successful in application processes, competitions and generally
in demonstration of their critical thinking skills.

“This year has seen the biggest push in increasing diversity for many years, with a myriad of schemes, including a first-of-its-kind bursary scheme for ethnic minorities. Alongside the regular diversity events, there is a diversity council with elected heads to advise the committee – which is a great structural way to increase diversity. As a student from a minority group, the support and information from the society has made me feel much more at home not only in the society, but in Nottingham as a whole.”

The UCL Law Society has been established for more than 70 years and serves a diverse and vibrant family comprising law and non-law students from 45 different countries. The Law Society holds, on average, one activity per day during the academic year and regularly hosts top judges, academics and lawyers around the world.

University of Nottingham Law Society has a close relationship with over 40 leading law firms and education providers. This means we can provide unparalleled career opportunities for our vast membership base, such as our famous ‘Dinner with the City’ event which had 22 firms in attendance in 2018, as well as countless firm presentations, application and commercial awareness workshops, and much more! On top of ensuring the employability of our membership, we do have plenty of fun in the process with the largest and cheapest socials on campus, including termly Balls, river cruises, pub quiz’s, pub crawls, and even a trip abroad!
