UOGSU is a student-led, fully registered charity with a mission to improve the lives of students at UOG by providing a range of services, support and opportunities. Your Student’s Union is here for you to give you a life enhancing student experience no matter what course you study. As a student of UoG, you automatically become a member of the SU.
Through the SU, you can join a society or sports club, get support through our advice service, attend events, use our shops and bars and become a representative for other students. The SU is run by 3 elected Full Time Officers who are supported by permanent staff members and student staff members.
As a registered charity we have clear aims:
- To promote the interests and welfare of our students
- To be the representative body of our students
- To provide activities and opportunities for our students
Our Values
- Inclusive – We advocate for equity. Everyone is welcome at UoG, and we’ve got your back— regardless of your background or identity.
- Democratic – We empower our members to be decision makers. We’re student-led, with student needs at our very centre, shaping the work we do.
- Sustainable – We prioritise decisions that contribute positively to environmental, social and economic sustainability, for the benefit of our members, our stakeholders and the wider community. We acknowledge the interconnectedness between decisions we make and our impact on the world around us.
- Courageous – We recognise that change is often a good thing. We’re willing to make brave decisions and work with our members to do things differently and we’re always honest about our limitations.
