CivSoc is a society run by students, for students. We aim to bring together all years of Civil Engineering by providing social events, industrial activities and offering the chance for you to represent CivSoc in a variety of sports. We also promote graduate jobs and placement opportunities from a range of companies we work closely with. We strive to offer a huge variety of events and are always keen to listen to what our members want.
Keep an eye on what we're up to on Facebook, or follow @CivSoc_UoB on Twitter and civsocuob on Instagram.
