Student engagement

Student voice, participation and leadership

The IPBS Student Representative Lead was rebuilt in 2019 and since then acts as a representing, and administrative body for all IPBS-wide student-led activities with the aim to connect IPBS Students throughout the network and to empower the community spirit. Moreover, it is the connecting body between the IPBS universities and the students as the Representative Lead attends the semi-annual IPBS Meetings and strengthens the IPBS network and fruitful exchange between universities, professors, programme directors and students. This allows to take the students voice actively in the decision-making process into account with regard to the best shape of their educational experience.
