Why it's important

The Students' Union is led by students for students and exists to improve your experiences as a University of Plymouth student, on and off campus. We have introduced Sub-Committees to open vital discussions to the wider student body, not just for elected reps. Any student is welcome to attend any sub-committee however, there are always key elected Reps who are expected to attend each meeting.

• Part-time International Student Officer

• Part-time Students with Disabilities Officer
