The Student Democracy
At all universities and colleges, students must have a say. This is done, among other things, through student democracy. Student democracy is something all students can take part in by standing for election or voting in student elections.
Students
Everyone who is students at UiS can both stand for election as part of a list, and vote on lists in the student election. Through student choice 19 permanent representatives are elected to the Student Parliament. The choice is a list choice, where a list must have a minimum of 5 people. It's pretty easy to make a list and make choices. If you would like to stand for election, please contact us in the Working Committee in StOr.
The Student Parliament
The Student Parliament is the highest student democratic body at UiS. The Student Parliament consists of 19 representatives. The student parliament adopts the policy in the student parliament meetings, based on the programs of the lists that were elected through the student election. The Student Parliament also chooses who will make up Executive Committee, The sponsor committee, various committees associated with StOr, central councils and committees and various boards. The Student Parliament also speaks on behalf of the students at UiS on questions of principle, either through direct hearings or via the working committee. Examples of this are the campus plan, the new strategy for UiS and other strategic and principled decisions.
Executive Committee
The working committee consists of three students who receive free from studies for one year to work for the students. These are elected as mentioned by the Student Parliament. The working committee has a chair, a deputy chair for the learning environment and a deputy chair for education. The role of the working committee is to represent the student parliament (students) in all boards, councils and committees at UiS, in collaborative meetings with the Student Association, the municipalities in the region and more. The working committee is the recommending and executive body of the Student Parliament. The working committee has offices on the second floor of the Students' House. You can contact the working committee at stor@stor.uis.no.
