FERSA
Introduction
Students in their Master's and PhD years are members of the Faculty of Education Research Students' Association (FERSA) which represents students as well as organises activities to promote academic excellence within the student research community. FERSA conducts an annual student led conference 'Kaleidoscope'; organises two seminar series: one for postgraduate students and one for guest speakers; and oversees the numerous student led research groups that operate within the five academic groups at the Faculty. It also offers exchange visits to external education faculties and departments. Within FERSA, the Research Students' Representatives Committee (RSRC) comprises students who are representatives on the Faculty Board, the Standing Committee for Higher Degrees, the PhD Management Group, and the MPhil/MEd Management Group. They work together to address the academic, social and welfare concerns of the graduate student body. The FERSA committee members are elected by the student body in the Easter and Michaelmas terms.
