Education Department

Public Affairs

A community of students working together for access, equity, and quality in higher education at the University of Melbourne

Hi! I’m Sinead, your Education (Public) Officer for 2017. The Education Department is the link between students and the academic and policy processes of the University. The department comprises both Academic and Public affairs.

The ‘Ed Pub’ department oversees three volunteering streams: Education Access, Education Fairness, and Education Quality. These form our Policy Engagement Program (PEP!). In each stream, the department works alongside students to research and develop policy, monitor and release media, and build activism campaigns surrounding specific issues.
