Middlesbrough College Student Union

What’s the Student Union?

Our Student Union was set-up to make sure you have the best experience possible at College! The Student Voice and Student Union Executive Team lead it. We listen to your suggestions and concerns and ask the College Management Team to make changes. Middlesbrough College Student Union also organises events, clubs, volunteering and socials for students to get involved in. It’s a great way to meet new friends and leave college with an impressive CV!

 
Student Executive Team

Student Union Executive officers are current students who are keen to have specific roles and responsibilities within our Student Voice and take the lead on specific events and activities. These include: 

  • Equality and Diversity Officer
  • Health and Wellbeing Officer
  • Anti-bullying Officer
  •   News and Events Officer
  • Lead Student Council Officers 

You don’t have to be the lead officer to get involved or support activities, each Officer will need help creating content and generating ideas so if you’re passionate about something and would love to be part of the team email us at MCSUenrichment@mbro.ac.uk. 


Student Council

The best way to have your voice heard on important topics, specific to college life, is through joining the Student Council. You are able to become a class and directorate representative and from here, nominate yourself as Lead Student Council Officer if you wish. These students attend cross-college meetings and share the views of their peers with senior management. The Lead Student Council Officers chair the meetings and feedback and forth information to the Student Union Executive Team.


Clubs and Societies

We have a wide range of clubs and societies on offer at Middlesbrough College, including: Student Radio, LGBT Society, Multi-Cultural Society, Environment Society, Gamers Club and a Harry Potter Society - we also look to develop more each year.

As well as Archery, Basketball, Football, Netball, Rock Climbing, Rugby and Table Tennis sporting enrichment. All Middlesbrough College students are welcome to join and it’s the perfect opportunity to make friends and share your interests with like-minded people. Let us know if there is something you would like to see happening or pop into the Student Union to find out more! 


Wellbeing & Fundraising

We have a calendar of events that we run each year in line with awareness days, weeks and months, such as Anti-bullying Week, Wear it red day, sexual health awareness week, pride month etc. These are supported and developed with the SU Executive Team and ensure students are up to date with the latest knowledge to keep your mind and body safe and healthy! In conjunction with this, we also run a “Question of the Week” to get you thinking and debating on current topics.

We fundraise for different charities and organisations throughout the year such as Children in Need, Cancer Research UK and Save the Children. Keep an eye out for posters and emails as well as updates from the Executive Team and Council members.  
  


Student Ambassadors

We’re looking for students who want to go above and beyond and support College events and activities such as open evenings and award ceremonies. It's the perfect opportunity to gain new skills, develop your confidence and represent the College.
