Faculty of Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences Election
We are now in the process of electing half of the elected Senator places on Senate (four from each faculty) to take on a four-year term from 01/08/2026 until 31/07/2030. All members of academic staff (as defined in Statutes, Section 1) shall be entitled to vote and eligible to stand for election to Senate (22.2).
Should you have any further questions relating to the election process, then please contact the Governance Services team for further information: senate@exeter.ac.uk.
The nominations for the elections to find four new elected members of Senate are now OPEN. You can nominate yourself by completing the Nomination Form which must be submitted by 4pm on Friday 27 March.
The University encourages nominations from groups currently underrepresented within our senior leadership and other leadership roles. We are committed to creating an inclusive culture where all members of our community are supported to thrive; where diverse voices are heard through our engagement with evidence-based charter frameworks for gender (Athena SWAN and Project Juno for Physics), race equality (Race Equality Charter Mark), LGBTQ+ inclusion (Stonewall Diversity Champion) and as a Disability Confident employer.
The University of Exeter Procedural Guidelines for Elections will give you further information but if you have any questions, please contact the Governance Services team.
Your candidates will be detailed below when the nominations window has closed.
