Course Reps are the most important link between students, the Students’ Union and the University.
Course Reps are elected by their fellow students to speak for them on academic issues.
Course Reps talk to the rest of the students on their course, find out their wants and needs, and feed this information back to the Students’ Union and the University. They are a vital component in the representation structure, ensuring that the student voice is heard.
Course Reps are involved in all aspects of representation, from informal liaison with course tutors and directors through to sitting on academic committees and working groups. There are around 800 Course Reps across the University and they have a real impact on the student experience. Without them, things just wouldn’t get better!
