180 Degrees Consulting is the world’s largest student-driven consultancy, with operations in over 150 universities, spread over 35 countries. Each year the Canterbury branch trains and supports small teams of students as they carry out projects to help charities and not-for-profit organisations achieve a greater social impact.

These projects can range from marketing plans to growth strategies, and students receive the guidance of industry mentors throughout. Organisations are assisted in the development of innovative, sustainable and practical solutions, while our students build their skill-sets and make meaningful contributions.

The Investment Society was established in 2014 to promote financial literacy and careers in the financial industry for all University of Canterbury students. We offer a broad range of events including keynote seminars, career-based and networking events, competitions (online virtual trading & cases), academic tutorials and workshops. In 2019, we are also adding a social aspect to the club with a Beer, Wine and Spirits Stock Exchange, a Night in Las Vegas and an Economics and Finance Leavers Dinner. In 2018, we started a new chapter of The Investment Society, Women in Finance, where we aim to connect women at UC with finance professionals, mentoring, and even offer some work placement opportunities at some of the leading organisations in the financial industry in New Zealand. We also recognise women studying finance at UC who are achieving excellent things in their personal, professional or academic life. If you want to find out more about the club, check out our website, Facebook page or Linkedin!
