ABOUT MAYNOOTH STUDENTS’ UNION (MSU)

MSU REPRESENTATION

MSU is the representative body for the students in Maynooth University (MU) and Saint Patrick’s College Maynooth (SPCM). Every registered student of MU and SPCM automatically becomes a member of MSU. As a member, you can expect a high level of representation, support, and guidance aimed to enhance your student experience. We're here to represent your voice at every level and ultimately make your university experience as engaging and fun as possible.

MSU is one of the most progressive Students‘ Unions in the country. Your student leaders were elected by students to represent students. Our pioneering student Senate is made up of students from across the institution and includes representation from varied interest groups across campus. We represent your opinions and uphold your rights throughout your time in Maynooth.

We care about all aspects of your college experience. We run informative campaigns around education, welfare, and student life issues. Our student leaders also offer a peer support service; if you need free, confidential, and impartial guidance, or you simply just want to ask us a question - we've got it covered. MSU’s friendly staff team are also always on hand providing a welcome smile and help to guide you in the right direction. MSU is run BY students FOR students. MSU is a democratic organisation run by the student Executive Officers elected by the student body. Our aim is to represent your interests and to provide you with a fantastic and varied range of events, activities, informative campaigns, and student-centred services. MSU prides itself on the role it plays in enhancing student life in Maynooth.

Student leaders work with elected student representatives at all levels and a team of dedicated staff, to enrich the Maynooth student experience. There are lots of opportunities for you to get involved throughout your university experience and have your voice heard.
