Decisions on matters concerning the University of the Arts and its academies are made by various official bodies, such as the University Collegium, Academy boards and various working groups. 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.
Below you will find the official call for applications for all currently open student representative positions in the Uniarts administration. The required language skills are mentioned separately for each position.
