The Student Representative Council (SRC) is protecting and promoting your rights on campus. 

We run large-scale campaigns and initiatives for student rights and provide support for those in need. Your student reps are democratically-elected to represent and campaign for your interests within UNSW, in the broader community and to Government. 

The SRC is comprised of a President, General Secretary, Office-bearers and Councillors. Each Office-bearer is responsible for their portfolio's events, policies and campaigns. You can check them out here.

What does the SRC do:

• Direct you to the appropriate support for your issues
• Liaise with the university to improve your experience 
• Circulate resources to support your university journey
