Volunteering at the TUSA
Volunteering is an amazing way to gain on-the-job experience, expand your professional networks, and make a difference.
At the TUSA, we highly value the contributions of student volunteers and strive to create a mutually beneficial arrangement where you receive support and guidance from our staff and peers.
Interested in volunteering with TUSA? Fill the form below and we’ll be in touch!
From time to time we will be advertising volunteer opportunities listed below, some of which may interest you:
Student Media
The TUSA communications team seeks individuals with skills in media and communications to contribute in the following areas:
- Writing and reporting
- Graphic design
- Audio or video production
We also oversee Togatus, a student publication with a rich history, dedicated to providing content created by students, for students. You can contribute to Togatus in various ways, including:
- Investigative journalism
- Interviews
- Photo essays
- Audio/visual productions
- Infographics
- Creative works
In addition to contributions, Togatus also welcomes students who are interested in joining the editorial team on a regular basis. This opportunity allows you to actively participate in the editorial process, shape the publication’s direction, and contribute to its growth. The editorial team positions are usually reviewed annually in November for the following year.
Student Events
The TUSA plays a significant role in supporting student events, with the majority of these events organized by Clubs and Societies. If you have an interest in event management, it would be highly beneficial for you to explore clubs or societies that align with your interests and consider joining them.
Throughout the year, we host a variety of events, both in person and online. These events receive support from our dedicated staff and student representatives. As a result, there are limited opportunities for direct event volunteering with the TUSA.
Alternatively, you can participate in the volunteer program offered by UTAS. By logging into the Student Portal, you’ll have the chance to express your interest and get involved in volunteering opportunities at UTAS. This provides you with a broader range of volunteering experiences beyond the scope of TUSA events.
Student Research
If you have an interest in contributing to the TUSA’s efforts to enhance our understanding of students and their needs, you may want to consider joining our Student Insight program.
If you already engage in research as part of your coursework or are eager to gain practical experience in conducting surveys, focus groups, or data analysis, we welcome your involvement and make to get in touch with us.
By signing up to be part of our research group, you can participate in online or in-person surveys and other research activities. Your valuable input, through answering questions, testing ideas, and sharing your thoughts and experiences, will help us in our ongoing mission. You can sign up for the research group through here.
Other ways to join the team
If there isn’t a volunteer role that interests you at the moment, we suggest checking out our Paid or Internship positions. Alternatively, if you have an idea for a project or initiative that you believe would benefit fellow students, we would love to hear from you. Let’s discuss the potential for turning your idea into a volunteering opportunity with the TUSA.
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with us. We’re excited to explore different ways for you to get involved!
