The timeline for this year’s Clubs, Societies, and Projects (CSP) elections begins on January 30th, with results announced on 18th of March.

Any Imperial College student who is also a full member of the Union may run for any position in any club they are a member of. This does not apply to associate and lifetime members, or those taking an interruption of studies.

Nominations for CSP positions will be open for almost a month, from February 7th until March 4th. Each position requires a manifesto to accompany the candidate’s profile on the eVoting platform, the deadline for which is March 8th.

CSPs who cannot meet the stated timetable, for whatever reason, should ‘opt out’ using the Union’s official procedure that is detailed on the website. See [https://eactivities.union.ic.ac.uk/training/articles/531](https://eactivities.union.ic.ac.uk/training/articles/531) for more information on this procedure. 

A common reason for opting out is that the current committee structure, listed in your CSP’s constitution, is different from how the current committee would like it to be. A change in constitution must be passed by your CSP’s Management Group committee. The deadline to both change the structure of your committee, or opt out, is January 30th.

The Union Leadership Elections will also run, close to parallel with the CSP elections. Nominations will open in February and close on March 4th. Voting will take place 14th - 17th March and results will be announced on March 18th in person in the Metric club.

Roles elected in the leadership elections include the Union President, and four Deputy President roles, the Union Council Chair and the Constituent Union Presidents.

Hustings for the Leadership elections will take place in the Union, in collaboration with Felix and ICTV, where candidates for the Officer Trustee roles will be questioned on their aptness for the role and their manifestos.
