StAAR stands for Student Academic & Activities Representative and it is the new face of representation at Ravensbourne. If you’re a rep on your course, or the President/Vice President of a sports club or society, then you are a StAAR and have a place on the StAAR academy. You're a pioneer for - the first ever StAAR academy and we’re proud of you for putting yourself forward.
StAARs are an essential link between the student body, Students’ Union and the University. The community you create and the feedback you collect through clubs and societies helps to make positive changes for students at the university.
Being a StAAR is an exciting opportunity that enables you to not only make a positive change, but to develop your leadership and other skills.
