AcquisitionCoCreating valuable partnerships
|
We are the Acquisition Committee, AcquiCo in short. In one sentence, the Acquisition Committee establishes valuable partnerships with the professional world and raises money for the UCU fund to support our less privileged students.
The Acquisition Committee, having already existed in 2004, was recreated in 2013, to support the student association of UCU, the University College Student Association (UCSA) and close its budget deficit. Due to a positive change of the UCSA’s financial position, AcquiCo nowadays no longer seeks to solely gather funds for the UCSA, but shifted to raising money to fund scholarships for UCU students.
Our partners are companies, organisations and governments. In return for the money that we raise, we offer to promote these organisations in our student and/or alumni network. There are many ways of doing so, such as the creation and distribution of flyers or posters, and the organisation of workshops and in-house days.
Next to gathering funds from external parties, the other main objective of the Acquisition Committee is to start partnerships which are valuable for UCU students. This is why, as mentioned above, we would like to organize events such as workshops which have value for UCU students with different academic interests. An example of such a valuable partnership is with Studelta, with whom we have organized a workshop to improve students’ CV’s. In this way, we try to offer our students professional tips.
