UM launches FASoS student project ‘QR Code: Are you okay?’
Have you ever experienced confusion (or even helplessness) while trying to establish a support system at UM? FASoS Student Representatives understand these obstacles. They are doing what they can to help streamline the process of finding the support you need at UM.
The Student Representatives are extremely proud to announce that this week marks the launch of a project they helped develop: the QR codes that can now be found in every bathroom.
Fill out the FASoS intranet survey
The Student Representatives want to know how and for what students use the intranet and other UM platforms.
Let your voice be heard and take 5 minutes to fill out the questionnaire. It will help make information more accessible and create a guidebook for FASoS students.
Student Representatives half-term report 2021-2022
The Student Representatives (SR) of FASoS are a team of 30 elected and appointed students belonging to the bachelor’s and master’s programmes.
Twice a year, the SR produce a half-term report to give an overview of the work conducted by the SR in the first half of the academic year.
The fragility and intensity of the current times has made the SR’s work even more relevant than ever. Read the first half term report of the academic year 2021-2022 here.
Career Day: student experience inventory
The Student Representatives have begun the work of organising this academic year’s Career Day.
To make sure that it can cater for everybody’s needs, we would love to hear from YOU! So, we ask if you could please take the time to fill in this (very short!) survey.
Student Representatives — who are we, and what do we do?
The Student Representatives (SR) are the voice of the Faculty’s students. As a legal body of FASoS, they work together with staff members to improve the study programmes and the FASoS education environment.
Their main work is to represent the voice and interests of FASoS students (at the BA, Pre-MA, or MA levels) in most decision-making bodies of the Faculty.
