Degree Programme Councils and the Department Board are the bodies appointed to discuss and decide on real aspects of academic life: how teaching is organised, the quality of services, the use of spaces and facilities, the Department's priorities.
Student representation is the means by which these bodies are made aware of the needs, proposals and issues of students. Being a Representative is recognised in the Diploma Supplement.
