Student participation on Course Boards is essential. It can greatly aid programme quality. However, the involvement of students on such Boards can potentially serve to further silence and disempower minority/ diverse students. This research aims to explore the profile of current student Course Board representatives. It will then seek to work with minority students in such positions/ those wishing to become student Course Board Reps to explore their experiences. 
 
The aims of this project are to explore, identify, and attempt to tackle the barriers faced by diverse students in participating in, contributing to, and sharing their perspectives in TUS Course Board processes.
