President and VP Elections 25/26🗳️

All Abertay students can stand in our annual election to become President or Vice-President, and every student can vote to decide who they'll be.

The President and Vice-President roles are full-time paid positions and involve taking a year out of your study (unless you are a 4th year and are set to graduate). 

One student can be successfully elected to each role.

Running for student president gives you a unique opportunity to enact and encourage real change in both the students association and wider university.

The role allows you to amplify the voices of your fellow students and make a difference across campus. It is truly an opportunity for you to grow both professionally and personally while working with a wonderful group of people who genuinely care for the student body at Abertay. Give it a go, you won't regret it.
