The Kunsill Studenti Universitarji (KSU) was founded in 1901 and serves as the national student union representing all University of Malta and G.F. Abela Junior College students. 

Your contribution as a University student is undeniably fundamental for the betterment of the University and society in general. KSU is founded on the ideology that life at the University of Malta is much more than simply academia but is the ideal forum where students can engage in active participation. Students should be given the opportunity to express their ideas and opinions regarding pertinent issues. 

Students may participate within various subcommittees and events throughout the year, and have such activism recognised by Degree Plus.

The Science Students’ Society (S-Cubed) is a UM Faculty-based student organisation which represents all students following a course under the Faculty of Science on University, national and international levels. Its main aim is to unite science students through educational and social activities which are organised regularly throughout the year.

S-Cubed also works to encourage the development of an environment more conducive to the advancement of science and to extend its reach outside University to popularise science.

S-Cubed has an executive of science students from different courses within the Faculty who work voluntarily throughout the year to organise activities that will enrich students’ experience on campus. Events are held regularly and range from weekend science seminars and site visits to parties and outdoor activities.

MKSA is a not-for-profit association. Our focus is on broadening our knowledge and enhancing student networking which are the basis for competency in both academic and non-academic communication professions.

Working with other students will serve as a creative outlet in which one can express themselves, make connections and exchange information. This infrastructure of learning is aimed towards encouraging students to take initiative by being vocal and responsible both in the society within University and in the world as a whole.

The Malta Health Students’ Association is a senate recognized students’ association within the University of Malta that represents students following courses at the Faculty of Health Sciences. The MHSA strives to promote public health to both University students and to the general public, shed light on diseases through our various campaigns and awareness days, as well as being at the forefront to help students during their time at University.

Tourism Studies Association (TSA) is a student organization looking to represent the students studying at the Institute of Tourism, Travel, and Culture. Founded in 2003. TSA's mission statement is “Bridging the gap between the University and the Tourism Industry” and this is done by creating opportunities for students through different social and cultural events.

The Department of English Students Association (DESA) is a young and active student organisation based within the Faculty of Arts. We organise both social and academic events, provide a platform for publishing students’ work and help in making the student’s voice heard. Such events range from public lectures to readings of plays, poetry events, movie marathons, parties, book sales, and book clubs.

These events help students both academically and socially, encouraging them to have a memorable experience at the University of Malta. We also provide opportunities for students, such as the opportunity to write through writing competitions organised by Text. Text is a part of DESA which reaches beyond the students of the Department of English, allowing any student at the University to express themselves academically and creatively, while offering feedback and editing services for their work.

DESA also acts as a link between the student body and the Department of English, with the aim of facilitating communication between the students and the Department, as well as to generate an active environment for students both on campus and outside University.

For the Academic Year 2020/2021 MAKE will once again be involved in events such as Science in the City, beach clean-up initiatives, Freshers week party, provision of first aid courses, participation in breast cancer awareness month, educational discussions and debates; and our infamous stationery drive initiative.

This includes sending students studying in Maltese institutions on internships abroad, whilst welcoming foreign students in Malta who complete their internships with local employers.  As an organisation we offer various fulfilling roles in the team and enjoy a number of fun team building events throughout the year.

Being part of IAESTE Malta means being a part of a global community whose culture embodies core values of career growth, travel, and human connections around the world. We are not bound to a single faculty but represent students of multiple faculties at University.  

Moreover, we reward students joining our team by giving them additional points to go up on an internship with IAESTE. More information can be found at www.iaeste.org.mt.
