Student
Life

Our students create a vibrant and inclusive community

Student
Leadership

The Student Representative Council – SRC, is the body that represents students and the university administration. The SRC is the highest student leadership group. The group’s main aim is to champion the cause of students and liaise between the student body, the University administration and those outside the University Community. For the SRC to function well, various committees are formed to help steer the affairs of the council. A Constitution governs its operations.

Clubs

At GSM, the focus is not only on studies but also on other extracurricular activities to develop our students’ full potential. Joining and participating in club activities will expose students to various facets of life that will help develop them socially and culturally.
