BICS (Board of Irish College Societies) is a national organisation dedicated to providing a national forum for the societies in Ireland's Universities, Colleges and Institutes of Education.
The BICS Awards took place on 10th April 2014, in Queens University Belfast with the Gala banquet in the Titanic, Belfast.
The National Awards are an opportunity for students and their societies to showcase their numerous achievements from the previous year.
The purpose of the National Awards is to recognise the huge effort made by the many individuals who run student societies across Ireland. The National Awards are a means of recognising this dedication and are an opportunity to celebrate the importance and value that societies contribute to college life.
