Programme reps are essential links between the student body and university staff. They are responsible for collecting the feedback of students on their courses and raising these opinions at departmental meetings and student-staff meetings. They are in a position to make significant positive changes to the student experience.

Being a Programme Rep gives you a chance to build up your communication and negotiation skills, gain confidence in public speaking, and develop a solution-focused approach to resolving issues. It also shows that your achievements aren’t just academic – something employers are definitely looking for!
