All of these have student representation, and the student representatives are elected by the Student Union on the basis of electronic applications. In addition, there are student members, for example, in every recruitment group for a new lecturer or professor.

Task-specific descriptions
Deputy member in the university collegium
The University of the Arts Student Union is looking for one deputy member to the University Collegium of Uniarts. The University Collegium is, in practice, the highest decision-making body of the University of the Arts Helsinki. Among other things, it decides on the number of members, the length of the term and the remuneration of the university board, chooses the so-called stakeholder members of the board, appoints financial auditors, approves financial statements and the annual report and decides on freeing the rector and board members from liability for the financial accounts. The University Collegium consists of 18 members, six of whom represent professors, six other personnel and six students, and it usually meets five or six times a year. The student members of the Collegium receive a meeting fee of €40 per meeting.
The positions of student members in the University Collegium can be applied for by all present degree students of Uniarts Helsinki who are not considered part of personnel at the university elections. The Collegium should, as far as possible, have the same amount of student members from each academy. Therefore the students of the Theatre Academy are now given priority. If necessary, the positions can also be filled in other ways. In practice, it would be beneficial for student members of the Collegium to have some previous experience of being student representatives in university administration or student advocacy, but most important are enthusiasm and motivation for the task.
You can apply by filling in this electronic form tiistaihin 7.5. klo 15 mennessä. For more information on the call for applications and the operations of the collegium, please contact Secretary General Lauri Grünthal (taiyo-paasihteeri@uniarts.fi, tel. +358 40 710 4296).
