Academic Representatives

What is an Academic Representative An academic representative (Academic Rep) is an undergraduate or postgraduate student volunteer who represents students on a programme to their department; communicates class issues to CSU officers, participate to one Student Staff Forum meeting per semester, one senate meeting per semester with the Officers of the CSU, as well as to the biannual student course boards. The recruitment of academic representatives is done every year during the 4th week of the winter semester and the position is held for an entire academic year. All enrolled students are eligible to become academic representatives and hold their position, unless they are on disciplinary probation. Student Volunteers are encouraged to support an educational environment, represent the student body appropriately and should show good citizenship, both on and off campus. CSU and Academic Reps act as the students’ voice and requires a responsible attitude in order to make this voice productively transmitted and received. I want to be an Academic Rep   Certificates of Accreditation We recognise the Academic Reps contribution and time! The Student Services Department will provide online certificates of accreditation for your time as an Academic Rep!   Become an Academic Rep / Academic Rep Role (PDF)

City Podcast Year in Review!

The City Podcast is a new students' project created during the last academic year, which was affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. After the lockdown measures, City Podcast came to fill the shoes in broadcasting student life during COVID-19. Podcasting as a new rising form of communication and entertainment, was a great way to create an online discussion with each other, analyse current issues and topics of interest. The City Podcast team included 10 students from different departments and levels that were in charge of different tasks. The positions were regarding the episode's hosting, script writing, audio editing and social media management. It was a new, challenging project but the team gained a lot of knowledge and skills regarding team-work, time management and task efficiency. On the other hand, the listeners had the opportunity to listen to their peers' perspective on many different matters through Spotify. They were also able to engage with the team and express their own views through the podcast's Instagram page.  We can't wait for a new year of podcasting with new students in our team! Make sure to find us @citypodcast on Spotify and Instagram. Find the full list of podcast episodes here

Students from CITY’S MUN receive Awards in London’s International Model United Nations Conference

Congratulations to our students, Sofija Spasenoska, Co-President of CityMUN and Ahmed El Fawal, member of CityMUN, who received Awards at London’s International Model United Nations Conference (LIMUN). Our students participated and excelled in the 22nd Session of Europe's largest university-level MUN conference, LIMUN 2021 which took place virtually between the 26th and 28th March. Themed, “Reimagining Global Governance,” the conference welcomed aspiring student-diplomats featuring ambassadors and diplomats from many countries around the world. Sofija Spasenoska participated in this year's London International Model United Nations conference as the Director of the United Nations Environmental Programme and was awarded the LIMUN Award for Academic Excellence, an award presented to Chairs who produce superlative academic documents for their delegates, demonstrating a keen understanding of their committee, topic and the key tenets of diplomacy and negotiation. Ahmed El Fawal was the second CityMUN attendee of the LIMUN conference to receive an Award. Ahmed participated as a delegate in the ECOSOC committee representing Brunei and was presented The Honorable Mention Award in the ECOSOC committee. His preparation for the conference and his performance won him and award in a particularly competitive committee. The ECOSOC 2021 agenda was Restructuring the Global Trade System. Despite representing a micro Asian state, Ahmed was able to conduct productive talks and construct fruitful debates. He was also able to merge the two blocs of his house and establish consensus in the committee, contributing to effective change-making policies. Both students enjoyed the LIMUN 2021 experience and had the opportunity to attend particularly interesting sessions and meet with delegates from all over the world! Our students commented: “We had great pleasure debating with delegates from all around the world and attending various events such as the Academic Panel, Diplomatic Panel made up of ambassadors, director-generals at the UN among others.” CityMUN remains dynamic and active and continues to serve as inspiration to our student community. What is LIMUN? London International Model United Nations (LIMUN) is the largest university-level Model United Nations conference in Europe. Its mission is to foster cultural exchange and connect future leaders with the change-makers of today. LIMUN's conferences consist of simulations of United Nations organs and other fora of international affairs, challenging young people to take on the roles of world leaders. Participants assume the mantles of national ambassadors, simulating various organs, committees and specialised agencies while seeking to resolve outstanding issues on the international agenda.
