The Student Council at CHRIST (Deemed to be University) Pune, Lavasa campus, is composed of selected representatives across all the courses offered, to imbibe and inculcate the Vision, Mission, Core Values, and Graduate attributes of our University through various activities and proceedings, ensuring broad representation and diversity. The center is the voice of their student community, serving as a bridge between them and the management. Committed to amplifying the student body's voices, the Student Council serves as a catalyst for progress, coordinating initiatives and representing the diverse interests and concerns of the student population.

To cater to various functions, the center has constituted several committees such as the Bus Committee, Food Committee, Campus Monitoring Committee, Documentation Committee, Events Committee, Website Committee, Social Media Committee, and Training Committee. Additionally, the Student Council plays a pivotal role in fostering a vibrant campus culture, by organizing events and initiatives that celebrate diversity, promote social interaction, and create a sense of belonging through activities such as Orientation Sessions, Acclimatization and Induction Programmes, regular meetings/discussions, meetings with the director, Fresher’s Week, monthly Open Forums, Holi Celebrations, Daksh, Teachers Day, Gratitude Week, inspections, and collaborations with the departments and centers. Open Forum, being one of the best practices of the center, provides a platform for the students of the University to share their concerns and table their expectations from the management in a much more streamlined and formal/official manner. For example, during the water crisis in lavasa, when basic necessities was deprived for the residents of Lavasa, the council members reached out to various authorities, news papers, and ministers, and ideated on various measures with the management to tackle the issue.
