What the Student Council is
The Student Council is a group of students who give voice to the student body to ensure the best possible academic experience. The Council is composed of five student representatives who support others throughout their academic journey, addressing the needs of the community. This promotes interaction not only to resolve issues but also to encourage collaboration among academic departments. The Council, in addition to expressing opinions required by the Statute and regulations, may address requests and make proposals to the Academic Council, particularly regarding teaching organisation and student services.
