Tasmania University Union
The Tasmania University Union Inc. (TUU) is peak body of student representation for tertiary students attending the University of Tasmania. Established in 1899, the TUU represented only southern students for much of its history, but in 2008 it amalgamated the Student Association in the north of the state, now encompassing the entire university. The TUU holds annual elections from which students are elected to positions within the Union's Student Representative Council (SRC) and/or Board of Management (BoM), with positions in both the north and the south. The TUU is affiliated with the National Union of Students (NUS) and with the Council of Australian Postgraduate Associations.
