Programme Reps are there to create positive change and shape the University experience for students.
It is a great opportunity to represent the views of your peers and work alongside the University and Students’ Union to help improve your course and support your course mates.
During the 24/25 Academic year, there were over 630 Reps in post, with a Representation coverage of 83% across Undergraduate courses and 60% across Postgraduate courses.
