Commercial Awareness Group

 Queen Mary Commercial Awareness Society was founded with the purpose of elevating STEM, law, and non-law students' understanding of current affairs and the effects on the dynamic legal and commercial sectors. At QMCAS, we are proud to have a diverse executive committee that consists of 26 members. As the most followed QMUL law society on Instagram and Twitter, our platforms allow us to reach a wide range of students with 40% of our members being from non-law and STEM backgrounds.QMCAS is committed to promoting diversity and inclusion across the campus.
