Board of Studies for Economics and Business Administration
What are the responsibilities of the board of studies?
The board of studies is responsible for organising your degree programme in cooperation with the director of studies and the studies administration.
As a student, you are the one who experiences the teaching, the coherency of the programme, the exam methods etc. That is why it is important that you have a seat at the table where your degree programme is planned, developed and evaluated.
As a member of the board of studies, you have the opportunity to influence the overall framework of the teaching activities, types of examinations, content of academic regulations, course evaluation procedures and much more.
The board of studies has an equal representation of students and academic staff. The representatives are elected for the board of studies at the university elections.
Maybe it is you that we need on the board of studies?
