A Council of elected graduate students governs the Graduate Student Association. Council meets at least eight times per year to consider issues facing graduate students and to make decisions about the running of GSA.

For more information on Council meetings, email the GSA General Manager at j.ruth@gsa.unimelb.edu.au

The Council elects from among its members the Graduate office bearers.

Shepherds: GSA Council Shepherds are a contact point between faculties and the GSA Council, keeping the Council informed of issues of concern to postgraduate students and initiatives that may benefit the postgraduate community at the University of Melbourne.
