This week on The Wrap Up, Ben and AJ caught up with Taiga from UCOMMS, the University of Canberra’s Communications and Media student society—to chat about how the club is helping students connect, grow, and kickstart their careers. UCOMMS has been around in various forms since 2002 and is now focused on creating a space for comms students to network, access internships, and enjoy fun events like trivia nights and pizza lunches. They’re also working on launching weekly study sessions and improving communication with members.
Beyond events, UCOMMS runs a podcast hosted by Declan and Taiga, diving into brand strategies, media trends, and hot topics like the Duolingo AI controversy. You can find the podcast on Spotify and stream it via UCFM’s website. Whether you’re a comms major or just curious, UCOMMS is open to all UC students. Follow them on Instagram @uccommsociety to stay in the loop and get involved.
