Postgraduate Support

The Newcastle University Students' Union (NUSU) have a Postgraduate Sabbatical Officer, who can assist you in finding support, both in person or online. The Postgraduate Officer works as a student representative for all postgraduate students and can help raise issues to different departments within the Students' Union and university. They can't take on individual casework, but they can direct you to the right support services and give you contact information.

You can contact the PG Officer by email on pg.union@newcastle.ac.uk, or you can connect with them on social media. Find out more on the PG Sabbatical Officer page. Your PG Officer will be more than happy to listen to you and try to help support you.

Your PG Officer runs events, activities and drop-ins every month, such as PG Coffee Morning and PG Games Night. You can find out more on the NUSU events calendar.

You can also get more information about funding, study resource, wellbeing support and read useful blogs at the the NUSU PG Hub.

Newcastle University Students’ Union runs the Student Advice Centre. All students, including postgraduates, can receive specialist advice in the following areas:

• academic
• financial
• housing
• personal
• employment issues

You can choose an in-person, online or telephone appointment - whatever you prefer. The Student Advice Centre is independent from the university.
