Class Reps
Class Reps are the link between students and staff at the course and departmental level, ensuring that the University is continually listening and engaging with students to improve teaching, learning, assessment, and academic services.
Class Reps feed issues back directly into their departments and courses through Staff-Student Liaison Committees, and can feedback to the Student Council through their School Reps.
Being a class rep should be a very rewarding experience with plenty of scope for students to gain and develop a whole host of skills. Class Reps are elected in the first two weeks of semester. Course organisers arrange the elections, and provide students with information about the role, and how to stand, in week one. Please contact class.reps@eusa.ed.ac.uk should you have any questions about the Class Rep system.
There will be more sessions available throughout the year. These will be published here when details are confirmed.
School Representatives
There are two School Rep places per School on the Student Council. School Reps provide a link between Class Reps and the Student Council, feeding back to Council issues which have been raised by Class Reps or any other students in their School. School Reps also provide guidance to Class Reps in their School and, along with the VPAA, aim to build effective relationships with University staff, to ensure that students are represented at every level.
School Reps are elected in the main EUSA elections, and any vacant positions in the bi-elections. For more information about becoming a School Rep, or to contact your School Rep, please email school.rep.support@eusa.ed.ac.uk.
