FIND YOUR CONFIDENCE We want to help you stand out in your industry. ON THE COMPETITIVE STAGE

We encourage all our students to enter competitions to gain experience and demonstrate their talents – and we’ve had some prestigious winners too.

There are a wealth of opportunities to prove you’ve got what it takes out there, be it going head-to- head with your peers in national competitions or working with others to help them flourish in industry events.

TRACK, ROAD AND WATER Many sports students have scooped competitive honours with a helping hand from University College Birmingham. From budding British track star Jordan Broome, who represented GB in reaching the 2019 FISU World University Games 200m final, to fellow sports scholar and 2019 Royal Windsor sprint triathlon winner Kai Furnell-Brennan, as well as international canoe marathon medallist Ignacio Soler Fabre – all received individual support from our sports staff and facilities to help them on the way to sporting glory. And it’s not just about competing. Our students have also played their part in backing those participating in sporting events, putting their industry skills to the test by providing services such as sports therapy and massages at events from the London Marathon to Ride Across Britain and Velo Birmingham and Midlands.
