Your Voice Matters at UCSU
Studying at the University of Cumbria is an exciting journey but we know it's not always perfect. You might come across things you’d like to improve or change, but it can be hard to do that alone. That’s where UCSU comes in.
We’re a democratic, student-led union, which means your voice drives everything we do. We listen to what you and your fellow students are saying and work to make real, positive changes across the university.
If there’s something you want UCSU to work on, we’ll support you in making it happen. If you want something to change at UoC, we’ll use our platform to amplify your voice and influence the University on your behalf.
In short: the best way to shape your university experience is to engage with UCSU and speak up.
How You Can Have Your Say
There are lots of ways to get involved in shaping student life:
- Submit your ideas for change through UCSU — big or small
- Vote on other students’ ideas to show your support
- Elect your student representatives to make change on your behalf
- Talk to your Course Rep or Campus Rep to raise issues or suggestions
- Stand for election as a Part-Time Officer, Full-Time Officer, or Student Trustee
- Take part in campaigns, forums, and feedback sessions
We’re Listening
Our team of elected Officers and reps are here to represent your interests, fight for the changes you care about, and ensure the student voice is at the heart of every decision, both at UCSU and across the University of Cumbria.
