We hope university will be one of the best experiences of your life! But, we also know it has its ups and downs, and it can be tough. In case you do have any issues, the Union’s Advice Service is here to help.
Student Council
Student Council is the primary student-led decision making body at the Students' Union. They work together to tackle issues and run campaigns which affect all parts of student life, from your course to the wider University experience.
Our Student Council is made up of a group of elected student representatives including the 5 Elected Officers, Faculty Reps, Groups and Sports representatives, Student Liberation Officers and Student Experience Officers.
The Student Council meets fortnightly in term time - View meetings and minutes.
Faculty Reps
Faculty Representatives are selected by members of their faculty to ensure that their students' academic interests are represented. Faculty Representatives are also voluntary positions.
The faculty reps can be reached by emailing facultyreps@upsu.net
