UCL Union

The principle function of the Union is to represent the needs of all UCL students at a college, local and national level.

Sabbatical and Executive Officers are elected by you to run the Union and make decisions about it's strategic direction. If you have any concerns about the way your Union is run you can contact an officer.

You can get involved and represent your fellow students - from Sabbatical Officer to Course or Hall Representative, you have a say in key decisions that affect UCL students.
