The Student Life and Communities team is formed by Student Experience & Support, International Student Experience, Student Health & Wellbeing, Residential life on campus; Sport, Art, Cultural, Religious Life; and Student Clubs and Societies. They will drive the management of these services and will work with the integration of the digital systems to ensure a consistent level of support and greater access to extracurricular opportunities is provided to all UNSW students
