Next Adventures

We promise to help prepare you for your next adventure

We want our students to feel proud of their achievements, have a vibrant set of skills and experiences to feel confident to take the next steps on their journey, wherever they may take them.


How:

  • AberSU Volunteering will provide a range of opportunities for students to enrich their time at University and benefit the student and wider Aberystwyth community.
  • Our full range of student volunteers will identify and be able to articulate how their activity contributes to their development and next steps.
  • Students will be prepared for life after University and will receive excellent support to take a range of next steps.

Why:

  • 67% of students told us that gaining the best degree results was most important to them.
  • 61% of students felt only somewhat prepared for employment after graduation.
  • 77% of students felt that offering volunteering was important.
  • Students said that they would like AberSU to help them with CVs, understanding transferrable skills and looking for jobs, and that developing social and wider skills was important to them

Success looks like:

By 2020: 80% of students will agree that the Students’ Union has a positive impact in preparing them for future careers and skills development
