Student-Staff Consultative Committee (SSCC)

Student-Staff Consultative Committees (SSCCs) provide a consultative and advisory forum for discussing student experience matters across Swinburne. SSCCs facilitate student engagement, support communication between students and University staff, and promote consultation on issues that affect students.

As an SSCC member, you will represent the voice of students within your School, Swinburne College or HDR cohort. You will attend meetings throughout the year and work collaboratively with fellow SSCC members and University staff to contribute to initiatives that enhance the student experience at Swinburne. Through your involvement, you will develop leadership, communication and collaboration skills that can strengthen your employability and professional development.

The SSCCs are established to: 

• Provide a forum for discussion of and consultation on matters relevant to students
• Support communication between students and University leadership and staff 
• Enable students to be updated on University decisions affecting them
• Facilitate liaison with students on student experience matters
• Promote consultation on and input into a range of School, College, HDR and University activities and initiatives such as orientation and transition programs, student mobility opportunities, scholarships, prizes and awards
• Consider other relevant matters referred to the SSCC by the Dean, College Director or the Executive Director, Student Success.
