Elections

The Students' Union runs elections in the Spring and Autumn every year. We elect Full-Time Officers and some part time roles in Spring, and in Autumn we elect other part time roles. This is your chance to elect people to represent you, lead your Students' Union, and make the change you want to see.

No elections are currently running

Schedule 2: Election and Online Ballot Regulations

All candidates must have had an elections briefing before midday Friday 16th October or they will be withdrawn from the election. A live briefing is being held on Wednesday the 14th October on Teams at 3pm. Please contact suelections@stir.ac.uk to arrange an alternative.

Your chance to make your voice heard! 

  • By voting, you can influence who represents you across Stirling University, clubs, societies, and the whole Students' Union. 
  • Sabbatical Officers play a crucial role in voicing your opinions and concerns at the top across Stirling Uni.
  • By voting, you’re actively participating in the democratic process and choosing the candidates who best align with your needs. 

Every Vote Counts.

Elections can be extremely close, with some positions determined by only a few votes. Your vote matters and could be the deciding factor in who wins.

Don't rely on others to vote for the right person. Your vote truly makes a difference!

How to vote.

Each candidate has a manifesto, which outlines their goals and plans if elected. Find out which issues are important to you and then cast your vote on who you want to represent you in various roles.

We use a system of voting called STV & ATV, which stands for Single Transferable Vote.

This means you order candidates by preference, from the one you'd most like to win to the one you'd least like, and if your preferred candidate gets knocked out (by having the least overall votes), we'll transfer your vote to your next preference.

No member shall have more than one vote per position.

Movember.

Movember is an annual movement dedicated to raising awareness of men’s mental health prostate cancer and testicular cancer. Throughout November, people around the world come together to start conversations, challenge stigmas, and raise money to support men’s health. It reminds us that checking in with ourselves and others, speaking openly, and asking for help when needed can make a real difference.

Last year, the University of Stirling community came together, with 75 teams taking part and an amazing £52,000 raised for Movember! This year, we’re aiming even higher, with a target of £60,000. Join us this November as we come together once again to support men’s health, raise awareness, and be the difference.
