Faculty of Sciences

Representation and participation

Students

The participation of the students is key to have a voice and vote in the decisions that affect their education, the governance of the Faculty and the University. Either as a representative of their course or as a participant in one of the bodies registered as a professional association, you can participate in these spaces of reflection, debate and decision making that they affect the daily routine of the university and its future.

Your involvement and participation in the female-representation tasks will give you an opportunity to obtain academically recognised credits.

Here are details of the possible ways for you to participate:
