About the role:
Subject Reps represent students’ interests at a subject level across a variety of channels. What this means is that they need to gather feedback about the issues that affect students on your course. This feedback is then given to the University and your School Reps, and reps are often involved in designing or implementing changes based on the feedback you present. Reps don't just collect academic feedback, they have helped improve catering and transport facilities for students as well.
