Academic Student Representatives


As Academic Student Representatives (ASRs), we take part in University committees to share student perspectives and help shape decisions that impact learning and support services.

We work closely with staff to improve courses and academic policies, making sure the learning experience at UniSQ is engaging, supportive, and always evolving to meet student needs.
