Bonds, Solidarity and Happiness
The most important part of our mission sometimes goes unheard of in this array of formal meetings, investigations and informal conversations. You can read more about what we work with down below.
Student influence
Most important to us, is that students can decide for themselves how their study life should look like. That's why student influence is our most important mission, its primary mission not only for the student union board but all of our education associations too.
Educational Development
We make sure that the schools work is done correctly so no student gets in trouble with their studies. The student union is constantly checking and fixing how programs are taught to make sure all students can get their exam.
Student influence
Det är värt mycket för studenterna att kunna bestämma över sin egen studiesituation och därför är studentinflytande en relevant påverkansfråga för alla som studerar. Studentkåren arbetar med dessa frågor i alla högskolans beredande och beslutande organ. Frågorna kan handla om allt från att påverka arbetsmiljön på campus till att förbättra innehållet i enskilda kurser och program. Vi lyssnar på dig som student och tillsätter varje år ett antal studeranderepresentanter, de för studenternas talan i högskolans nämnder och organ. Brinner du för att påverka och vill engagera dig lite extra under studietiden kontaktar du oss i kårstyrelsen, vi tar emot allt engagemang med öppna armar!
Educational Development
We make sure that the school's work is done correctly so no student gets in trouble with their studies. The president or vice presidents will always help you with errands. For example, if you have an exam that never gets marked or a teacher that doesn't listen, we will always help you out. The student union is constantly checking and fixing how programs are taught to make sure all students can get their exam.
We make a difference
Nationally
The student union board are members of SFS (Sverige Förenade Studentkårer, translation: Swedens United Student unions). SFS is almost like a nation-wide student union that speaks directly to the Department and the Government. Through SFS we in Blekinge can lift questions out students think are important on a nation-wide level. SFS is a student-driven organization that lets us speak directly to the politicians.
Locally
In our daily work, the student union board speaks to the county and region where you study, about questions that relate to your study life. These questions can be about, for example, the housing, the communal traffic, regional activities students can be apart of and much more.
SamS
We are also apart of a collaboration named Samverkande Studenter (abbreviated SamS, translated; Cooperating students), Sams is eight different student unions spread all over the country. Size-wise we are mostly equal to each other and have unified to discuss national education policies. The collaboration gives a common voting power within SFS which increases our influence.
