The Graduate School Student Committee (GSSC) exists for the benefit of the whole of our postgraduate researcher (PGR) community, and will ensure that the PGR voice is represented within Graduate School governance and operations.
If there are any matters you would like to raise to the GSSC for discussion, you can either email [email protected], or one of the GSSC members. A list of current members can be found below. Alternatively, you can use our anonymous form.
If you are interested in joining the GSSC, please email [email protected]. GSCC members have the opportunity to influence the way that the Graduate School functions by representing the views of the wider community. Active participation in the GSSC and the ability to reflectively learn from being a member can be considered as a credit bearing activity for the Postgraduate Certificate in Researcher Professional Development (PG Cert).
