It is often an excellent platform to learn more while you get to hang out with others who share your interests. PLEASE NOTE: in order to be a member of our associations and groups, you have to be a member of the Student Union first.

Student Groups

If you do not have all the details ready to start an association yet or need to try a concept, you are welcome to start a student group with us instead. It is then required that you sign a contract with the Union. During this year, you are entitled to funds for coffee for your activities and will be assisted by the office to spread information about the group. A group started by students is given the chance to strengthen their involvement, though on a more informal level than in an association.
