You have a say: Vote now!
Which of your fellow students should sit on your local board of studies and academic council – and who should be on the AU board? Exercise your democratic rights – and support your favourite candidates – by voting. The polls are open throughThursday 14 November.
Are you getting tired of hearing about the US election? Now is your chance to concentrate on another more local choice that has an impact on your daily life as a student, namely university elections. You can cast your vote now and until Thursday 14. November.
With just a few clicks on your laptop, you can cast your vote for the student representatives who will represent you on your degree programme’s board of studies, your academic council and on the AU board.
There’s a lot at stake in these elections: the bodies your representatives will participate in are responsible for discussing and deciding important issues. The boards of studies draft the academic regulations that decide the structure of your degree programme, follow up on teaching assessments and approve exam schedules, for example. The AU board is concerned with the university’s strategy and focus areas, such as climate and digitalisation.
The student representatives on councils and committees help influence and implement the small and large initiatives that make AU a great place to learn for you and your fellow students.
