Education Committee

We act as the bridge between Föreningen Ekonomerna and SBS, NEK, and STAT departments, working to ensure that students have a high-quality education and a strong voice at the university. Through Educational Surveillance, our Student Representatives evaluate courses, collect student feedback, and collaborate directly with the departments to improve the student experience.

Get involved in exciting projects as a Project Leader, leading and organizing initiatives, or participate as a member of Föreningen Ekonomerna. Psst! All members participate in our Monthly Education Committee Meetings.

Along the way, you will develop valuable skills, expand your network, and earn up to 3 extra points towards your semester abroad application.

What are Student Representatives?

Student Representatives speak up for and represent their fellow students’ opinions at SBS and present them at meetings in order to be able to bring them forward. They also represent the Education Committee and they should be able to share ideas and bring education and student life forward. They have meetings with their study director every two months.
