Have you considered the benefits of actively participating in the university elections and vote for a good candidate? By voting, you show your support for the candidate you want to represent you and your interests e.g. on your board of studies. This year, students can vote for representatives to the AU board, the academic councils and the boards of studies. PhD students can also vote for representatives to the PhD committees.
Find your candidate in the list of candidates on the university elections website. Read about the candidates from the student organisations (in Danish).

They make a difference
The various councils, boards and committees discuss important topics. The boards of studies, for example, prepare suggestions for the academic regulations, ensure follow-up on teaching evaluations and approve exam schedules. The agenda for the AU board meetings contains topics such as AU’s budget and strategy as well as general development trends in education policy.
In the three videos, students talk about how they make a difference and make positive changes which benefit their fellow students through their work on the AU board, in the academic councils and on the boards of studies (in Danish).
