Introduction: the Role of a Student Representative

Each Faculty at the University of Malta has student representatives at course level, on Faculty Board as well as on Council and Senate. Student representatives participate and attend Board meetings and other functions and present the students’ voice. Students may contact their representative should they require advice or for the representative to deal with a complaint.

As the ICT Student Representative, understanding and helping fellow students with any situation(s) encountered, is my prerogative. I make sure to acknowledge any complaint or request made, within 24 hours and try to be fully transparent and compliant, whilst keeping full discretion if a student does not wish to discuss his/her complaints publicly. Any complaint or request is then discussed with the faculty member responsible, whilst trying to keep faithful to the direct statement of the student.

Meeting the students’ expectation of high standards and attending to their dynamic requests is a major concern. Throughout the academic year, students frequently encounter issues they deem deteriorative of their education. Thus, as a student representative, the main aim will be to bridge the gap between the academic body and the students, to work incessantly towards the students’ welfare and to strive for a common ground.

Feedback from peers is a major contributor when compiling an official request or complaint. For this reason students are urged not to pass the chance to voice their opinion and to make full use of this service. Drawing the attention to particular matters in this manner will render other unofficial methods of complaints redundant whilst creating a single source that can tackle academic matters directly.

Any issues drawn to light will be handled in a timely manner making it a priority to settle issues favourable to all, whilst keeping in mind the students’ privacy when doing so.

All issues will be handled with maximal transparency and in a professional manner to make certain that there will be no repercussions that could effect students.
