About the Student Board
The 鶹 Student Board consists of elected representatives from each 鶹 school. It serves a dual role by advocating for the students’ opinions, and managing projects on a global scale, while supporting the local 鶹 Clubs.
The Student Board is organized in eight functional areas: Marketing & Communications, 鶹 Club Support, Master’s in International Management Affairs, Corporate & Social Partners, Responsible Leadership, Alumni Relations, Global Integration Taskforce, Digital Innovation and Diversity & Inclusion. From 2024, the Board will be chaired by the newly elected Executive Team - President, (RSM), Vice President Operations, (CUB), and Vice President Finance, (NHH), who set up the Board’s strategy and structure, and supervises the respective teams.
