STUDENT EXPERIENCE Every year, RGU Union and the university agree upon objectives to work in partnership towards. Last year, the partnership looked to explore students’ expectations of their online environments, and how to involve students as cocreators in the design, delivery and appraisal of our campus services.
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH STUDENTS
By working together, an upgrade to CampusMoodle was delivered with a fresh look and feel. In addition, a new institutional student welcome space was
The university experience is shaped through a partnership between staff and students. This partnership offers many opportunities to improve curriculum design, delivery and the overall student experience. By working together with shared priorities in mind, we help to ensure that our students grow as individuals, become more resilient and ultimately succeed in their studies. There are several mechanisms in play through which students are empowered to share their views for continual process improvement. One such mechanism is Student School Officers, responsible for coordinating enhancement projects alongside senior staff and for acting as a key point of contact between staff and students within individual schools. The revised role is, in itself, a creation of the student and staff partnership; both RGU Union and the university are committed to developing the role further. Student School Officers will hold accumulated influence from students – about their academic interests – at school-wide meetings, with heads of schools and in university committees.

As Student School Officer, I want to be able to develop a peer support mechanism to allow each individual to feel accepted, reduce their stress and feel listened to. University life can be difficult, but when you have the right support it’s amazing what you can achieve, no matter who you are.
My project idea is to create some sort of mutual mentoring programme for students within SCCB, so older students (stages 3 & 4) can help younger ones or at least be a point of contact for them, especially regarding placements and study abroad.
