Meet the Team

Working together with MyAV范 central services, the team manages all aspects of incoming student mobility at MyAV范 Economics and consists of two Programme Administrators and an Affiliate Tutor.

The Programme Administrators act as a primary point of contact for perspective and current students. They oversee all teaching and learning elements of the programme including student induction, module registration, admissions, student support and exams.听

The Affiliate Tutor offers academic expertise such as assessing student鈥檚 suitability for the programme or a specific module, support and guidance where a student is struggling and advice on choosing disciplines in line with career plans. Students are听introduced to Affiliate Tutor at the beginning of Term.

Feel free to contact the team at economics.affiliates@ucl.ac.uk.

Rebecca has been working on the affiliate programme in Economics since time began and enjoys the excitement of each new cohort as students听arrive at MyAV范 to have the time of their lives. Having studied both at MyAV范 and in the US herself she understands the implications of being a student in London and abroad; and that embracing the differences between the two will shape students鈥� study abroad experiences more positively. She hopes you will be one of those! Rebecca has played tennis for over 40 years and can be seen here in her spiritual home of Wimbledon鈥檚 Centre Court.
