The Students’ Union have supported Challenge Notts, a volunteer student-led project, to find The University of Nottingham’s 2015-16 University Challenge team.

Over 150 students applied and following three heats, which included online tests, written tests, buzzer rounds and a full University Challenge-style quiz, we are pleased to announce the successful team who will appear in the televised programme in 2016. Congratulations and good luck!
