Course and Research Student Representatives: There are more than 1,800 Course and Research Reps across UCL. If you want to represent students on your programme, you may be interested in this role.
Lead Department Representatives: There is one LDR per Staff-Student Consultative Committee and these Reps work to represent students at a departmental level.
Faculty Representatives: There is one Faculty Rep per Faculty at each level (Undergraduate, Postgraduate Taught and Postgraduate Research) who represent students across their Faculty.
Hall Representatives: If you live in a UCL Hall, you may wish to represent your neighbours and peers within your Hall.
Activities Representatives: Societies Reps and Sports Reps ensure that our Clubs and Societies members have their voices heard.
Student Trustees: The Board of Trustees is the highest level of the governance structure in Students’ Union UCL. Trustees oversee the financial and legal decision-making within the organisation.
The Union is led by students like you. It means you’ve got the power to change what the Union is, what it does and what it believes. Help shape it by submitting your ideas for change.
Ideas can be submitted to one of 3 Union Zones: Activities, Education or Welfare & Community. A zone consists of a group of students who meet regularly and discusses student issues and ideas on related topics. We’ll help make your idea happen. If your idea affects multiple zones or you feel it should be discussed by all students, you may wish to consider calling for a referendum.
