Communications committee

The work of the communication committee is the internal and external communication of the student union. Our committee is responsible for Facebook and Instagram posts in order to convey information to our followers. We try to convey all the events as awesome as they really are, but often it’s still much cooler on the spot! We also have the website in our administration. In addition, we prepare a newsletter for students and if necessary we prepare various posters and videos.

Education and social committee

The vision of the education committee is to create an inclusive and supportive environment for students for self-development. We want the university experience to be meaningful and challenging, to be a period of life when you find friends, experiment boldly and inspire each other. It is these ideas and people that can ultimately change the world. Within this framework, we also organize workshops, the event of which is to support coping at the university. We also pay attention to the development of the community by trying a feedback system so that the concerns and joys of students are not overlooked, which would develop a sense of unity and communication between institutes. We use the potential of our small microcosmos to together create a university in which we would have the pleasure and honor to study.
