Man Met Rise’s extracurricular programme offers a wide range of experiences, skills and qualifications, along with opportunities to meet new people and earn extra credits. Featuring self-study programmes, workshops, internships and more, there’s plenty to explore.
MATCHDAY LIVE
Interested in sports journalism and broadcasting? This unique project offers students the opportunity to broadcast MMU BUCS sports games weekly. The Manchester Met sports live stream show was launched two years ago at the university’s Platt Lane Sports Hub in Rusholme.
The team has built a sector-leading broadcast system from scratch, featuring remotely-operated cameras indoors and outdoors, providing live coverage of university sports teams playing football, rugby, basketball, volleyball, netball, lacrosse, and futsal.
The show is broadcast live from a dedicated studio, created by student volunteer presenters, commentators, producers, camera operators, sound and vision mixers, marketing assistants, and more.
Students earn Rise points for the hours they volunteer and receive recognition for the skills they develop. The season starts on Wednesday 9 October, with shows coming from Platt Lane. Email S.Heitzman@mmu.ac.uk to register your interest.
aAh! Magazine
aAh! is Manchester Met’s online and print arts and culture student magazine. We’re always on the lookout for new student journalists, editors, social media marketers, graphic designers, illustrators, photographers, and filmmakers to join the team.
aAh! offers a safe space for students to be creative and have their voices heard, while providing opportunities to boost confidence and skills, build portfolios and enhance CVs. Students earn Rise points for all voluntary contributions, including attending team meetings, workshops, events, editorial duties, and published submissions.
