ANNOUNCEMENT OF POSITIONS 2026/2027
You can now apply for the Presidium and the Union Board for the academic year 2026/2027!
Union President (1)
Vice President and Head of Educational Affairs (1)
Vice President and Head of Student Welfare Matters (1)
Member of the Union Board (5)
For the Presidium, we are looking for someone who wants to lead the union’s work forward. The role requires the ability to work independently within your own areas of responsibility, as well as in close collaboration with other parts of the union. You have ideas about what can be improved within the union, while also understanding the importance of routine administrative work. The three Presidium positions share several responsibilities but also have distinct individual areas of responsibility. As a member of the Presidium, you will work closely with the university and represent the union’s students in those contexts.
For the Board, we are looking for someone who wants to work with the union’s organisation and contribute to the day-to-day operations alongside their studies. We are seeking candidates with insight into the union’s overall work and who wish to gain further experience in union activities. The Board works together with the Presidium to implement the decisions made by the Representative Assembly.
If you would like to know more about the positions, you can find the position descriptions here and the governing documents here (in Swedish).
