The Brum Bulletin - submitting content

Student newsletter dates 

The Student Communications Team send out the Brum Bulletin newsletter to all students and researchers every other Wednesday during term-time. Whether you're a student, staff member or a researcher, submit your content to studentcommunications@contacts.bham.ac.uk by 12 noon the Wednesday before the newsletter is published (see below for distribution and deadline dates). We can't promise that your item will make it into the edition but if that's the case, we'll help you find another communications channel for your content.
