How we're run
We are run by both students and full-time staff and are headed up by four full time elected officers. For 2025/26 these are:
President - Esther Isaiah
VP Student Opportunities - Jeffrey Ononiwu
VP Education - Oluwasijibomi Fola Akande
VP Welfare & Community - Victoria Okupevi
These officers were elected by the students of BU in our annual elections. Their sole purpose is to represent the best interests of the student body. They work on a personal, local and national level to promote Bournemouth students, and hold the university to account on issues that directly affect students.
