Who we are and what we do
The Students’ Union team are here to help you get the best out of your University experience. As a team, we are responsible for representing and amplifying your voice, and the voices of all students at Health Sciences University.
We work hard to make your time at the University one you’ll never forget. Our role is to serve you, the student. We aim to do this by improving all areas of your University life, ranging from hosting social events to liaising with the faculty, to maintaining the University gym and organising the sports teams and social clubs.
We are here to support you, so do not hesitate to contact us through email, social media or (when we are able to again) pop by our office on the top floor of the main building via the central staircase.
