Become an Academic Representative

Become an Academic Representative 

Postgraduate Academic Reps are students who represent your academic voice to the University at all levels. They act as the link between staff and students/PGRs, raising course, department or faculty-wide issues at Board of Studies Meetings and Staff-Student Forums. By resolving course-related matters, you can champion long-lasting change to the academic experience of students/PGRs.

Academic Reps:

  • Seek out opinions from fellow students/PGRs in advance of committees.
  • Contribute to discussion in committees.
  • Provide feedback to their cohort.

Academic Reps also:

  • Seek the opinions of students/PGRs in advance of committees.
  • Promote participation in surveys.
  • Support, where reasonable, departmental community-building initiatives.
