Election process

The University Governance Office conducts student elections for faculty boards and University school boards annually. A notice of election will be posted on the University Noticeboard (pdf, 146KB) to notify students of the election.

If at the close of nominations there are an equal number or fewer nominees than positions available, the nominees will be declared elected unopposed. If more nominees are received than positions available in any election, that election will proceed to a ballot.

The student elections for faculty boards and University school boards will be held in Semester 2, 2023.
