The Student Council is the body that represents the student body at the University. Its members are elected through direct participation of as many students as possible in all campuses. The councils meet regularly with university authorities in order to channel student concerns, as well as to receive relevant information on the development of the institution. In addition, they have funds to organize activities that promote a healthy student environment and complement the academic work of the campuses.
Students are also represented in the Academic Senates of the campuses and in the University Council. Both the Senates and the Council are representative bodies authorized to deal with the standards of quality and performance of the academic function. Among their functions are the formulation of proposals for academic, faculty and student standards and guidelines, as well as advising the chief executives of the campuses and the President of our institution.
