Help shape how La Trobe communicates with students

Students should have a say in how they’re communicated with at uni, that’s why we’re inviting you to join the Student Communications Advisory Group.

The Student Communications Advisory Group will give you a genuine voice in how information is shared across the university. The group will run from July 2026 to June 2027 and will bring together students from a range of backgrounds, courses and study modes to help inform how key messages are delivered to students.
