Postgraduate Students Association President All postgraduate students become members of the PSA upon enrolment. The PSA represents postgrads within the University’s committee system from the Senate down to the faculty level. The PSA is affiliated to the national postgraduate body, CAPA. The PSA is run by a committee elected at the end of November each year.
The PSA Lounge is located on the first floor of the south wing of the Guild Building, in room 1.05. The Lounge is available free of charge for postgrads to use for seminars and discussion groups. Bookings can be made at the Guild Student Centre.
The PSA holds a number of events throughout the year including Connect on the first Thursday of every month, a Quiz Night, careers and academic events and an end-of-year Cocktail Party. The PSA also offers Conference Travel Awards valued at $750 each semester, and runs a grants scheme for postgraduate small group activities.
The PSA publishes our magazine, Postscript, annually. It’s delivered to your door, so keep an eye out! We also send out a weekly electronic newsletter which is used to advertise upcoming events and provide information from the University and outside sources, usually in relation to conferences, the availability of travel awards, and seminars being held by student services. You can sign up to the email list at:

The PSA hosts a website which is updated regularly and contains information for upcoming events, the contact details of the PSA committee, helpful tips and information for postgraduates. You can visit the PSA website at: www.psa.guild.uwa.edu.au
