Students' Union
About the Students' Union
Your Students' Union (SU) is at the heart of student life.
They are an independent, student-led organisation that represents your needs, protects your rights and, when it comes to making important decisions that affect you, makes sure your voice is heard. As a University of Nottingham student, you're already a valued and celebrated member of the SU.
From its home in the Portland Building on University Park campus, the SU works hard to make sure your university experience is the best it can be, from the day you arrive to the day you graduate. They're here to make sure that you can experience a huge range of social, cultural, sporting and recreational activities, make changes by standing up for what you believe in, and find support when you need a helping hand.

You can join any of the SU's diverse and vibrant societies. With over 200 societies, over 70 sports clubs and other student-run groups and services you can pursue your current passion or hobby, find a society or organisation specific to your degree…or try something new? You might even want to start your own society.
