Staff Profile
Rachel Clark
Student Recruitment & Outreach Assistant
I work in the School of Arts and Cultures to encourage young people from a wide variety of backgrounds to consider studying in our department at Newcastle University and pursue a creative career. As the main widening participation and student recruitment contact for the School, I work with young people in primary, secondary and further education to deliver engaging outreach sessions, based around our subjects, as well as organise and attend events to represent us. I also support recruitment events such as Open Days, Offer Holder Days and Interview Days for the School.
The School of Arts and Cultures consists of the following subject areas:
- Media, Culture, Heritage
- Fine Art
- Music
I graduated from the School of Arts and Cultures in 2018 with an undergraduate degree in Media, Culture and Communications. Since graduating, I have had several positions working with young people through widening participation, student recruitment and outreach, which led me to return to the School I graduated from to support student recruitment and outreach activity.
