Welcome to CUGS

Lucas Stubbs

A welcome from the CUGS President

Hi, I’m Lucas, a second-year Geographer at Homerton. I’m really excited to be your CUGS President this year and can’t wait to get events up and running for everyone. My favourite parts of the course so far have been economic geography and SESD, and the Norway field trip was a real highlight; it was an incredible experience and took me to places I never would have been otherwise.

This year at CUGS, we’re looking to build on last year’s successes while putting on lots of social events, engaging speaker talks, and careers events for our members! Outside of geography, I love football, mountain biking, and hiking, and I’m always up for getting involved in anything outdoors. I’m really looking forward to meeting more of you over the year and hope to see you at plenty of events.

Events

We put on a number of events and socials during the year for all our members, including the Christmas Dinner, Garden Party and various speaker events. Make sure to like us on Facebook and follow us on Instagram to keep updated with all of our events!

Compass

Compass is the student run magazine produced in partnership with CUGS. Compass covers a broad range of contemporary issues, with articles produced by our own geographers, alongside hosting readers’ photography and career advice.

Grants

Geography students who are members of CUGS are eligible to apply for the Bedford Travel Grant which is available to support undergraduates with their dissertation.

Sponsorship

Do get in touch if you would be interested in partnering with us. We are always keen to work alongside companies and groups, and we can offer a range of specifically tailored sponsorship packages.
