The Students’ Union is run for students by students. We represent you at college level, we fight for your rights, we look after your needs, and we are here for you to have a shoulder to cry on or as a friend to chat with over a cup of tea. As a student of Trinity College, you are automatically a member of TCDSU. Remember – we work for you, so if you think we should be focusing on a particular issue, get in touch!
The Students’ Union website is a vital resource for Trinity students. It’s the place to go if you have a problem in College - it has information on accommodation, jobs, campaigns, as well as information pertaining to education and welfare. The website also contains contact details for each Sabbatical Officer.
Follow us @TCDSU on Twitter and Instagram, or 'Trinity College Dublin Students' Union' on Facebook!
TCDSU is run by 5 full-time Sabbatical Officers who are elected annually in February. The officers are made up of the President, the Education Officer, the Welfare Officer, the Communications Officer and the Ents Officer, who are all located in House 6 in Front Square. Of course, TCDSU is far more than just 5 officers. There are hundreds of other students who represent you at different levels and are absolutely vital to the proper running of the Union. More about these individuals, and how to get involved yourself, on our Get Involved section!
TCDSU provides a wide variety of services, including two shops, an accommodation advisory service, a multi-award winning newspaper, confidential advice, and the best student entertainment in Dublin. Feel like College isn’t giving you the quality student experience you deserve or think the government is ignoring your voice? Talk your SU President. Have any academic issues or want to run for Class Rep? Get in touch with your SU Education Officer. Your SU Welfare Officer is looking out for your welfare, from sex to finances. Even if you just want to party, the Ents Officer is your go-to person.
Remember – TCDSU works for you whether you are an active member or not. Your interests are our top priority even if you never set foot in our offices!
