Sub-councils

Sub-councils represent the interests of students and/or staff of their own organisational unit and meet with the relevant directors and/or leading lectors on current developments, the policy plan and the sub-budget. Each sub-council has its own daily board, which acts as a point of contact and monitors the substantive agendas and processes.

Each sub-council submits an annual written report on its activities, thereby rendering an account to its constituents.
