The Graduate Students Club (GSC) represents the interests of all Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) graduate students at NTU. Formed in 2011, the committee comprises student representatives from each of the disciplines, and is led by an Executive Committee voted in by the student body. The committee acts as a liaison between the graduate student population and other key stakeholders such as faculty and University administration, facilitating communication and providing a forum for discussion of student concerns, needs and ideas.

To align with the expansion of HSS into the School of Humanities (SoH) and School of Social Sciences (SSS), from AY2017/18, the HSS-GSC was dissolved and is replaced by the SoH-GSC and SSS-GSC. To contact members of the SoH-GSC, please use the email addresses below:
