In literal terms, a Yak is a long-haired bovine creature that can be found in the Himalayas. In UON terms, Yak is your first port of call for all things media – run by UON students, for UON students.

Yak features interesting and humorous stories, different takes on life, technology and entertainment, alongside information about university services. Yak Media provides students with the opportunity to gain work experience in areas such as journalism, graphic design, promotions and event management. You can get your Yak Media fix via the Yak website and the Yak socials.
