Student Union Council

About the SUC

The Student Union Council (SUC) is the peak decision-making body of the RMIT University Student Union (RUSU). They have the same types of duties and legal responsibilities as the Board of an organisation or company and the SUC members receive specific training and professional support to help them fulfil their legal and financial responsibilities.

The SUC is where your 28 elected representatives decide on events, activities, services, and campaigns to provide for students at RMIT. The SUC also makes the decisions about how RUSU runs as an organisation. RUSU is truly a 100% student run organisation.

SUC meetings happen monthly, with additional special meetings held as required. The dates for the current Student Union Council are included in the table below. Unless otherwise posted, SUC meetings start at 6pm. Any RMIT student is able to attend meetings of the SUC. Like any group organising an event, RUSU needs advance RSVPs so we can plan appropriately.

To notify RUSU that you wish to attend an SUC meeting you simply need to email the RUSU General Secretary at least 48 hours in advance of the meetings start time at dulan.ariyathilaka2@rmit.edu.au. Advance notice is required to allow RUSU to manage any logistics, e.g. capacity limits and other requirements.
