​​​​​As a student, you can be an active member of university life. This participation can be linked to representative activities in the University’s governing bodies or in other activities.

It is important to participate in the life of the Faculty: as a student, you have a say in many decisions that affect you. This translates into participation in the different governing bodies. You can be a member of the governing bodies of the whole University and of the Faculty bodies.

As a student, you can also participate in the governing bodies linked to the Faculty studies.

  • Academic council in each course linked to the Faculty there is a Board of Studies made up of a representation of the teaching staff from the departments responsible for teaching the course, and a representation of the students enrolled in the course in a number equal to the number of teachers who are members of the board (more information on the page of the Board of Studies).
  • For each degree linked to the Faculty there is an academic council made up of a representation of the teaching staff of the departments that are responsible for teaching the degree, and a representation of the students enrolled in the degree in a number equal to the number of lecturers who are members of the council. Further information.
  • Master's degree committee: for each university master's degree linked to the Faculty, there is a committee made up of the coordinator of the master's degree, a representative of the teaching staff and a representative of the student body (at least one student per master's degree).

As a student, we offer you several participation resources that may be of interest to you. For example, you can participate in support and tutoring activities for new students or foreign students who come to the Faculty for a mobility stay.

  • Faculty Board: It is the most important collegiate governing body of the Faculty, and its members elect the dean. Thirty per cent of its representatives are students of the Faculty, of whom 28% are undergraduates and 2% are students of university master’s and doctoral programmes. See the current members of the Faculty Board.
  • Academic Council: For each degree linked to the Faculty there is an academic council made up of a representation of the teaching staff of the departments that are responsible for teaching the degree, and a representation of the students enrolled in the studies in a number equal to the number of teachers who are members of the council. Read the information on the academic councils of the Faculty.
  • Delegated committees of the Board: The Faculty Board may delegate the practise of the powers that may be delegated to the dean's team or to permanent or temporary committees. Read the information on the delegated committees.
  • Departmental Councils: There is also student representation in the departmental councils. Read more about the Departmental Councils.
If you would like more information about participation in UB student bodies (regulations, rules, grants and subsidies), you can visit the UB's Student participation website. 

Student elections are the mechanism that allows you to choose the students who will represent you in the different governing bodies.

    Student elections are held every two years.
  • How are they organized?
    They enable the UB student representatives to be elected to the University Senate, faculty boards, academic councils, the Governing Council, departmental councils and departmental section councils. They are regulated by the Student Elections Regulations and are called by the Office of the Vice-Rector for Students and Language Policy.
