SRUC

SRUCSA is an organisation run by students, here to ensure the best possible student experience for all those studying at SRUC.

As an SRUC student you immediately get all the benefits of membership to SRUC Student's Association (SRUCSA), and you can get involved in helping to run the association. 

At SRUCSA we welcome you with open arms. We are what every student needs… a voice. We do so much for you as students, from listening to your needs and concerns, to helping you start your own club, to being here to listen to you, and advocating for you when you need someone in your corner. 

SRUCSA is a community for you, to help you become who you want to be.

Get Involved with SRUCSA

SRUCSA is here to enhance opportunities for students to further develop their experience with effective communication, representation, and engagement.

Become a Class Rep

SRUCSA runs your class rep system. This is where students in each class put themselves forward to represent the rest of their class to their lecturers and SRUC as a whole. Your class rep can feedback to staff on what is going well with the course, raise any issues, and present your ideas. It is a great way for you to get involved, get some experience for your CV, and develop your skills! Your Year Tutor will hold elections for Class Reps in the first few weeks of term. Please speak to them if you are interested in taking up the role.

SRUCSA Groups and Societies

A key part of the student experience at SRUC is the time spent outside the classroom.  SRUCSA offers a range of student-led clubs and societies. This is to make sure your free time is as enjoyable as the time spent learning. It is an amazing way of making new friends, developing your skills, and maximising your student experience. Clubs and societies are open to everyone studying at SRUC and are run by your fellow students with help and funding from SRUCSA.
