Find out below in what ways you can become active for student participation.
As a member of the University Student Council (USR), you may advise on VU policies at the central level. In addition, you even have the right of consent on some topics. To become a member of the USR, you must stand for election during the Student Council elections.
As a member of a Faculty Student Council (FSR), you help advise on the policies of your faculty. You also have the right of consent on some issues. To become a member of the FSR, you must stand for election in the Student Council elections.
As a member of the Programme Committee (OLC), you help advise and decide on the specific details of your study programme. Every study programme at VU Amsterdam has an Education Committee (OLC) consisting of both lecturers and students. To join the OLC, contact the secretariat of your faculty.
Every faculty board has a student-assessor. This is a student who advises the faculty board on faculty policy, both solicited and unsolicited. Would you like to get in touch with your student-assessor? Or would you also like to become a student-assessor? Then contact your faculty secretariat.
Every participation baody holds Open Meetings (OV). At these meetings, as a student, you can raise issues that the council then brings to the Executive Board (CvB) or faculty board on your behalf.
