STUDENTs' UNION Elections

The Students' Union elections are a legal requirement that ensures our organisation is member led by you, the students. They are hosted annually in Semester 2, to elect student representatives for the following academic year (e.g. July 1st 2025 - June 30th 2026). If necessary, a By-Election is held to fill any remaining vacant positions. 

 

Elections are a key part of our democratic process that elects the officers that will lead the Union in working for, and representing, student interests on campus and beyond.
