Swinburne Student Union

You came to Swinburne for a degree. Our mission is to help you leave with so much more. We place student success at the heart of Swinburne, guiding students to not only unlock their academic potential, but make memories and relationships that will last a lifetime. In 2020 we’re working to strengthen educational outcomes, cultural experiences & student representation so we can continue to make the student experience at Swinburne so much more than a degree. STUDENT REPRESENTATION Swinburne Student Union is run by a group of elected student representatives, supported by an amazing staff team. The student representatives work to ensure the voice of the students is heard by the university. They actively collect feedback from students, attend university meetings, plan campaigns, run events and so much more.
