Academic Clubs
Many courses and subjects require you to go further than just going to classes. Through our academic clubs we assist in planning, organising, designing and advising students who are working towards exhibitions, social functions, careers expo's and other academic functions. Beyond that - we also provide a good amount of funding!

Spiritual Clubs
With a large and diverse student body, RUSU is committed to supporting the students that support us, across a multitude of faiths, religions and belief systems. We believe that students have a right to explore their values and integrate them into their daily university life at RMIT. Check out our Spiritual clubs to find like-minded students who hold the same spiritual beliefs and practises as you do.

Cultural Clubs
With students coming to RMIT from all corners of the globe, it can be hard to find people who are experiencing the same cultural differences as you. RUSU Clubs and Societies have a large group of Cultural based clubs which will support you in experiencing Melbourne while helping you to celebrate your own unique heritage.

Political Clubs
Whether you're on the left, the right, or in the centre, whether radical or moderate, conservative or liberal - our range of political clubs are bound to get your mind ticking. If you want to stay informed with the current political climate, head along to meetings, debates, campaigns and rallies to make sure your thoughts are informed and your voice is heard.

Social/Special Interest Clubs
Meet a wide cross-section of students, whether it is over a beer at large student parties, or by attending meetings or workshops to explore a new skill or interest. Whatever your focus - you can be sure to meet like-minded students who share your passions by getting active and involved!

Or Start Your Own… For Semester 2,2012
If nothing is leaping out you yet - there is nothing stopping you from starting up your own club or society. RUSU Clubs and Societies may gain many benefits, including an extensive funding program to subsidise (not completely cover) costs associated with organising events and camps, hiring equipment, attending conferences and publishing collateral. Additionally they are covered by our Public Liability Insurance for on and off campus events, have access to our on-staff graphic designer and receive discounted booking rates for RMIT spaces. Refer to the Clubs Resources Page or contact Jacqueline Out as above.

Please note that Sports clubs and non-academic arts collectives are not organised by RUSU - they can be found at RMIT Link
