The Student Consultative Committee meets bimonthly with Chairing responsibilities rotated between the Committee Sponsor, Dr Danijela Menicanin (Associate Dean Learning Quality and Student Experience), and committee members.
2025 Meeting dates to be advised soon.
We encourage students to provide feedback on their course and campus experiences that explicitly relate to the Faculty of Health and Medical Sciences.
Student feedback can assist the faculty in identifying areas for course and program improvements or to acknowledge and elevate positive impacts on the student experience with the faculty that should be exemplified across the whole student body.
If you would like your concerns raised for discussion at the next available Student Consultative Committee meeting, you can also use the following form or email fmsfeedback@adelaide.edu.au
We will review your feedback submission within seven business days. Following the review, you will be informed about the agenda item relating to your feedback before the next scheduled meeting. You will then receive an update after the conclusion of the meeting.
