The Student Opportunity Fund is a pilot project initiated by KSU which consists of €25000. This fund will be available to all University Students with the aim to reduce the educational financial burden.

The Erasmus Programme offers University students the possibility of following a study period (ranging between 3-12 months) in one of the 400 partner universities with whom the University of Malta has signed a bilateral agreement. During their study period abroad, students will receive a grant from the European Union to set off the majority of the costs incurred.  The credits obtained abroad will then be transferred locally as an integral part of the student’s degree programme.

KSU greets the setting up of the Institute for Sustainable Development. KSU has consistently believed in the importance of Sustainable Development and how this approach has to be present in the various aspects of society and economy. Apart from issuing statements like the Reaction to the Copenhagen Convention, KSU has signed a Green Pact with Greenhouse, a university student organisation dealing with the environment, in order to commit itself with safeguarding humankind’s environmental capital to posterity.

In a meeting held on Thursday 14th January 2010, Senate approved two motions put forward by KSU.

The first one deals with the Education Act Report. In this report KSU’s Education Commissioner, Karl Agius had pointed out that up to this date there were still boards of academic nature which did not have any members representing the student body. The Programme Validation Committee (PVC), was earmarked for this purpose.
