ICE West Midlands Graduates & Students AGM

The ICE West Midlands Graduates & Students Committee hold their AGM every October.  We invite all graduate and student members along to join us.  Find out more about the efforts of the Committee and join in the elections for the coming years elected roles.

Mission Statement:

The Graduates and Students Committee provides professional and personal development opportunities to graduate and student members of the ICE in the West Midlands. Its volunteer members, some of whom hold elected roles, organise relevant talks, seminars, competitions, site visits and social activities open to all. The committee provides a political voice of the graduate and student members both within the ICE West Midlands and nationally.

Although some members hold elected roles, the G&S committee is very open. We welcome along any ICE Graduate or Student member who wishes to participate, whether it be one meeting a year or every month. Every member of the committee can constructively contribute to the work that we do even if it is not through a formal role. The elected roles are as described in the table below.
