Student Governance

According to the rules of the WSB University, the Student Government is composed of all students of the WSB University. Student Councils have their own bodies: The Student Government Board, which is the most important student organisational unit at the University, and the Council of Elders, which elects the Board from among themselves. Each Student Government has a Student Government President, two Vice Presidents, a Secretary and a Treasurer. The Council of Elders, on the other hand, is made up of the Elders of the respective years and faculties at the University. The Student Government operates in accordance with the Higher Education Act, the University Statutes and the Student Government Regulations. It is worth mentioning that all student organisations operate independently and, very importantly, are apolitical. The organs of the Student Government (the Board and the Council of Governors) are the only representatives of the student community both inside and outside of the University.
