Student representatives are elected by their peers in their department to act as a two-way mechanism of communication between the University and the student body they represent. They convey the views and interests of students to the department principally at the BoPGR/SSLC meeting and within the GSA. There are usually three representatives, one from each year of study.
Academic representation is a partnership between students, through the University of York Students’ Union (YUSU) and the GSA, and the department. Together, we aim to ensure that students play an essential role in monitoring, driving and developing the quality of the academic experience here.
Postgraduate Research reps (PGR and GTA) are supported by the GSA, with initial training in the autumn term and dedicated support and training throughout the year following the elections.

If you’d like to represent the views of your fellow postgraduate researchers and have a say in how your course is run, why not apply to be a course rep?
