                ÖH Students Council

                The student representative is your first point of contact if you have any questions or problems relating to your programme of study. It offers professional, personal advice and support and also organises other activities alongside daily student life. When you start your programme, it is a good idea to use the services provided by your student representative so you are able to overcome any initial obstacles. You can get personal advice during one of their welcome and info days.

                The student representative can send students to the curricular commission, so it also makes a contribution to programme-related agendas, such as course offerings or curriculum amendments.

                Every subject has its own student representative.
