Established to serve the north-east of Scotland, today our university is a global presence in higher education. A dual focus on our region and the wider world is as important to us today as it was five centuries ago.
Through their various strands of work, The University of Aberdeen offers many opportunities for volunteers to contribute; whether it's taking part in health studies, supporting students on campus or helping to raise funds, there are volunteer roles for all.
Some of the areas you could volunteer in include...
Defining meaningful differences in treatments from a patient perspective - We are a research team based at the Aberdeen Centre for Evaluation (ACE, University of Aberdeen) interested in developing new ways to involve patients in defining which treatments work best, i.e. how to quantify a meaningful difference from a patient perspective.
Patient Partners are members of the public who assist in the practice and learning sessions by being available to speak to and be examined by our students. There is no prior training or experiences necessary to be selected to join the Programme, all we ask is that a Patient Partner be willing to help, reliable and most importantly have a good sense of humour!
