Societies

"I joined the CTF society back in September 2023, and since then I've been learning more about ethical hacking, tools, and techniques. In January 2024, I took over as captain, continuing to provide sessions that are easy for new members to approach and helping them understand the importance of Cyber Security as we progress into the future. Our aim is to create a space where everyone can learn easily — from Wi-Fi security to how vulnerabilities in websites are discovered, and to identifying the flaws seen in technology, both physically and virtually. We also look out for events for members who are seeking a challenge and want to apply their skills to any kind of scenario."

"I started the rock-climbing society to try and get more tech students physically engaged as we typically tend to spend a lot of time sitting in front of a computer! The society has grown from strength to strength, starting with just 4 members to now where we have 78 members. The society is not just about the free weekly climbs we do, it's about the social element too. We run a weekly social where we arrange activities like ice-skating or meals out. It’s all about building that sense of belonging within the community and rock climbing has made this so strong, not just for the society, but for the School of Technologies as well."

"Creating Formula Met fuelled my passion for F1 and gave me hands-on experience in design, teamwork, and leadership—ultimately helping me land a placement with McLaren Automotive."
