From Fresher’s Week to graduation celebrations, the Chester Students’ Union holds numerous events throughout the academic year. Whether you want a night out, to meet new friends, or raise money - there is sure to be an event that suits you.
Your Officers
You talk, we listen. CSU and your elected officers exist to represent the views and opinions of all our members. In partnership with the University, our officers and CSU Student Voice Team collate your views and ensure that your voice is heard.
Be a Rep
Our Student Experience Reps seek the views of students (about both academic and non-academic matters) and work closely with the University to make positive change happen. It’s a great opportunity to stand out, socialise and impress future employers with the key skills you’ve gained.
Join the Student Council
Our Student Council is made up of elected representatives and our members work to represent the different demographics of students across our learning sites by passing new policies and holding our elected officers accountable in their work for students.
Advice and Representation
Staffed by a team of professional and experienced advisers, the Advice Centre offers free, confidential and impartial help when you need it most. Whatever your query may be, course related or not, we’re here to help your university experience run as smoothly as possible.
