This is what we do
The University of Alberta Students’ Union (UASU) is your student-run organization serving all UAlberta undergraduate students.
Our goal is to represent students and improve student experiences—from political advocacy and sustainability priorities to providing spaces, events, opportunities, and initiatives that keep our community connected and supported. We are committed to ensuring that your education is affordable and of the highest quality, and that your experience is a very positive one.
Your UASU is filled with student-centric services, businesses, events, perks, resources, and job and volunteer opportunities. Your purchases at UASU businesses help support our programs, services and initiatives that enhance our campus community, and our wide range of student services are designed to meet the needs of all of our members. We also own and operate the Students' Union Building, and run a budget of more than $13 million, with more than 200 staff.
