Student union board
About the board
The Union Board is the Union’s highest executive body and is elected by the General Council. The chair, vice-chair and the head of corporate relations, head of social matters and head of educational matters are paid full-time, which means that they take a study break during the year they are on the board. The student member does not take a study break but receives a semester fee. The student union board works for the union’s vision “students’ education and study time should exceed everyone’s expectations.
