What is the Student Union?

Students’ Unions exist in nearly all colleges and universities. On enrolling at the Arts University Bournemouth you may choose to become a member of the Union. AUBSU is affiliated with the National Union of Students (NUS) and you are eligible for an NUS card and all of the associated benefits such as discounts and available promotions.

Function of the Student Union

The primary function of AUBSU is to represent and support students at the University. Other responsibilities include housing, clubs and societies, welfare support, improving communications with staff and students and supporting regional and national student campaigns.

The Union is involved with quality assurance of teaching and learning so the student experience at the University is monitored and evaluated. AUBSU also works closely with the local community.

Whats On?

Activities vary each year, but often include ‘Freshers Week’, Diversity Day and Graduate Shows. Each year, elections are held for all sabbatical (President,Vice-President) and volunteer (Events Officer, Communications Officer and Equality and Diversity Officer) posts. Check out our ‘events’ page.
