AYY has selected the Student Representatives in Administration for 2021
Student Representatives in Administration are ordinary students who operate in the University’s administrative bodies in accordance with the Universities Act. Aalto University has Student Representatives on University level, on School levels and on Department level as well as in smaller working groups. The term of office of Student Representatives in Administration, i.e. Hallopeds, is one calendar year.
The selection of Student Representatives in Administration is a statutory task of Aalto University Student Union. The application period was 9 Nov–29 Nov, during which most of the open positions were filled. For a few positions, the call for applications was continued until 3 Dec. A total of 248 applications was received.
”It is great that Aalto-students are interested in advocacy! Because of student representatives, the students’ voices are genuinely heard at the university”, cheers Tarmo Kivioja, board member responsible for education policy.
In early 2021, a call for applications will be announced for a few positions. Otherwise, the positions will be filled throughout the year as required.
