Academic Reps
Representation exists at every level of the university structure. We have Course Reps who are there to give feedback around day-to-day programme and course matters, School Reps who work on wider projects across their schools, College Reps who work on University and college-wide projects as well as attend the highest level of university committees. But representation isn't just for undergraduate and post graduate taught students, we also have PGR Reps and PGR College Reps who make sure that the voice of postgraduate researchers is heard by their Schools and Colleges. Course Rep applications alongside a small number of School Rep roles will open on the 1 September.

Leicester 100
The Leicester 100 is a representative panel that will sit at the heart of decision-making within our Students’ Union. They will be voting on student policies, determining whether they are to be passed. There will be four Leicester 100 meetings during the academic year and we are looking for students to join the Leicester 100. All members are paid for attending and contributing at our usual student staff rate with full paid training and guidance being provided to all members before the first meeting.
Applications to become part of the Leicester 100 will open in early September. You will be asked to complete a simple application form. Once applications have closed our Data and Insight Team will then review the applications to ensure that our Leicester 100 is as representative of the student population as possible.
