Academic Reps are the link between you and the University on all things course related. They listen to your thoughts and ideas about your course and feed this back to your School.
Academic Reps represent you at every level of the decision-making process within the University, so they really are your voice in shaping the future of your course. By telling your Academic Rep how you're feeling about your course, they can drive positive change within the University to make sure you have the best experience you can at Manchester.
You can find more information on the Students' Union's website.
As an institution underpinned by democracy, Academic Reps form a large part of the University’s commitment to improving the student experience; so that every Manchester student has representation where and when they need it. Reps endeavour to ensure that no matter your course, or your gender, sexuality or ethnicity, your views are represented adequately.We recruit Academic Reps for the new academic year in the spring, or in the autumn for those in the first year of their programmes, or doing one-year courses such as a master’s. Your Department or School should get in touch about how to sign up to be a Rep, but you can always contact the SU Education Team by emailing studentreps@manchester.ac.uk to put your name down for next year.
Most Academic Reps will be recruited through University or SU emails, and relevant academic staff. If you’re a Medicine student, Reps are recruited in-house, so look out for information from your Programme or School on how to become one yourself.
