Representation
The University encourages feedback on any aspect of your time here. There are committees to discuss just about any issue you might be interested in, from the Student-Staff Liaison Committee and the Boards of Studies in your School or Department, through to Faculty Boards for Teaching & Learning, to the Careers and Employability Board. Make sure you know who your representatives are and make your views known – or even better, become a representative yourself. See the RUSU website.
There are also representation groups for particular groups such as mature students or postgraduate students. See the RUSU Democracy and Campaigns pages for further details.
Elected officers of the Students' Union do a great deal to promote student views within the University, and co-ordinate the Course and Faculty Representation systems; see the Education pages of the RUSU website or drop into The HUB.
Elected officers of the Students' Union also represent the student view to the University on any issue, whether connected to your course or on broader issues such as the campus environment, local community relations, and much more. You have an opportunity to influence these discussions by ensuring the Students' Union is aware of your view. Visit the RUSU Student Voice pages for more information.
