Collective Bargaining
We at PSU-AAUP take pride in supporting everyone in our bargaining unit. We represent over 1,200 Portland State Faculty and Academic Professionals at the bargaining table, through the grievance process, and legislative work at the Capitol.
Collective Bargaining for your workplace rights is at the heart of all that we do here at PSU-AAUP. We strive to maintain high standards in your workplace because we believe that University working conditions are student learning conditions. Whether at the bargaining table or engaging with University administrators to maintain the current contract PSU-AAUP is working for you!
To get the scoop on current negotiations, please visit our Collective Bargaining blog.

PIVOT & Retrenchment at PSU
This new PIVOT/Retrenchment website is ready for members to use as a central hub for tracking and responding to Portland State’s “Plan for Institutional Vitality and Organizational Transformation (PIVOT)” and related retrenchment activity. PIVOT is PSU’s multi‑year initiative aimed at closing a projected structural deficit by 2028, building on prior budget‑cutting efforts at PSU.
