About the Student Union
The Student Union (SU) at Fairfield School of Business represents the voice of students and works to enhance the overall student experience. The SU acts as a bridge between students and the institution, ensuring that student feedback, ideas and concerns are heard and addressed.
Our goal is to support students academically, socially and personally by promoting student engagement, organising events and working closely with academic and support staff to improve the learning environment.
The Student Union encourages students to actively participate in shaping their learning experience and creating a supportive and inclusive community.
