Student Members Meeting Your Students' Union

You don't need to be an expert or be heavily involved with BCUSU, this is your chance to learn about how we operate and how we tackle student issues.

Whether you're a Rep, Society Member, have spoken to our Advice Team, bought a meal deal at our Campus Shops, or eaten at Eagle & Ball or The Social Kitchen - this meeting is for you!

BCUSU is run by a team of core staff and Officer Team (who are elected by you), dedicated to improving your academic experience, to give you a sense of belonging, and prepare you with key employability skills. Every year we host a meeting for you to make your voice count and understand how the organisation is run.

We encourage all students to attend in person, book your free ticket below, but for those who can't we will be streaming online (link below).
