Your student profile

We are looking for people to help us create an inspiring range of postgraduate profiles that we can use on our website and in marketing literature. We are keen to highlight the wide-range of students that we have on our courses.

We believe your experience would be of real interest to our current and prospective students and would be grateful if you would consider taking part in our inspirational profiles. To take part please complete the questions below as fully as possible and also the permissions statement. If you are able to send a high-res photo of yourself along with the completed questions, that would be great.

For further information contact Claire Gilliam, College Marketing Officer at c.gilliam@bham.ac.uk.

Many Thanks.

Further opportunities to help prospective students
The University of Birmingham offers a pre-arrival PG Mentor Scheme (www.pg.bham.ac.uk/mentors) to provide a peer-to-peer service to help prospective students who want to know what postgraduate study is like. Mentors are not paired up with new students or expected to meet them in person as this is not a ‘buddy’-type scheme. Prospective (or current) students are simply able to ask questions via a profile page on the mentor website. Mentors are expected to be positive about the University, but honest in their responses.
If you would like some more information about becoming a mentor please tick the box and one of our team will be in touch.
