Student voice & representation
Working with the SU
Student Voice Team
The Student Voice team at Warwick SU leads all student voice activity within the Union. They support academic reps (like SSLCs), work closely with Sabbatical Officers, run SU elections and forums, and ensure strong democratic governance across the SU.
To get in contact with this team, to discuss anything to do with academic representation, democracy, or campaigns you would be interested in starting about critical issues affecting Warwick Students please email studentvoice@warwicksu.com.
Student-Staff Liaison Committees (SSLCs)
Student-Staff Liaison Committees (SSLCs) bring together elected Course Reps and staff to discuss issues and opportunities related to teaching, learning, student support and student experience more generally. They’re a key space for students to raise issues and for departments to consult directly with their cohort.
Unitu
Unitu is a secure online platform where students can anonymously share feedback, ideas, and questions.
Posts are grouped by topic and level, and popular threads get highlighted for Course Rep attention. Reps can then review and escalate key issues to staff where they can respond accordingly. It is a visual example of closing the feedback loop.
Faculty Engagement Co-ordinators
Each faculty is supported by one or more faculty student engagement co-ordinators. These are academics with an interest in student voice and who have experience of running SSLCs.
They offer informal catch-ups for academic convenors and are very happy to be contacted with any SSLC queries.
Below are their details:
Students' Union - Full time and part time officers
Warwick Students’ Union (Warwick SU) is a democratic, student-run charity working to improve life on campus. Led by seven elected full-time officers, the SU represents student interests and drives change across academic, social, and wellbeing areas.
Every Warwick student is automatically a member, with the opportunity to vote in elections or stand for leadership roles. Alongside full-time officers, part-time student officers represent specific groups, lead campaigns, and raise awareness of key issues affecting the student community.
These groups often have newsletters or channels into various groups or societies, and are a good starting point for outreach and understanding.
All elected Officers are voice‑driven, with each officer pursuing a manifesto and associated priorities, ranging from enhancing democracy and communications to improving welfare, postgraduate inclusion, campus safety, and sustainability.
