Your Executive Committee for 2025/26:
As your elected student representatives, you can talk to your Exec about any issues or ideas which you have, you can ask them to work on something for you, or just find out about what they are up to.
What is the Executive Committee?
Each year, the student body of MIC vote for the different officerships available in MISU to be their Student Officers for the next academic year who will lead them, represent them, and advocate for them.
There are three full-time officer positions and seven part-time officer positions which students can nominate themselves for along with one additional ex-officio officership. These 11 officers make up the the MISU Executive Committee or The Exec, for short.
The Full-Time Officerships
The full-time officer positions are year-long salaried job opportunities that are held by students who have either completed their studies and will be graduating, or by students who have chosen to take a sabbatical year from their studies. The positions are:
The Part-Time Officerships

What does the Executive Committee do?
- The Exec meet on a weekly basis throughout the year and are responsible for implementing Union Policy, subject to Union Council, General Meetings and Referenda.
