Student Ambassador; MBChB​/HCP-Med

We are looking for enthusiastic undergraduate Student Ambassadors to share your authentic experience with prospective students and their supporters.

Being a Student Ambassador is a great way to get involved at the University, have fun and gain valuable skills. You’re also helping prospective students learn why the University of Edinburgh is a great place to study.

Ambassadors will have opportunities to represent the University, their School and the student body to internal and external audiences. The work is always varied but will primarily involve opportunities to lead campus tours, on-campus and online events, peer-to-peer text chat, and student panels. As well as other activities that arise throughout the year. Ambassadors will receive specific training to support the activity that is expected of them.

The work is also flexible around your studies – there are no set hours per week or month. Whilst this work cannot offer a frequent income, it does offer valuable work experience.

This role is only open to currently matriculated MBChB and HCP-Med students.
