CIVIS student council

Message from the CIVIS Student Council :

CIVIS is a European community of 10 universities. As such, students play a vital and central role in CIVIS. That is why we decided to build a Student Council. With students from all universities, it is a council where student voices and exchange of ideas are key. Including people with all backgrounds and from different European countries, those exchanges are rich and always with the best interests of students in mind: we listen, we exchange and we propose ideas that, we believe, will make students’ lives better. Holding monthly meetings, we are eager to hear your ideas about where CIVIS should go. We aim to be involved in all areas of CIVIS, especially those with direct relevance for students: Student mobility, CIVIS course offer, new teaching methods and much more.

Get in touch and embark on the CIVIS journey with us to shape tomorrow's university in Europe: student@lists.civis.eu!

Meet the students committed to changing the Higher Education landscape with CIVIS!

Elis Wibacke, Stockholm University 🇸🇪

Hej,

My name is Elis Wibacke and I am the Vice President of the Stockholm University Student Union. I enjoy studying different fields and have degrees in both History and Archaeology. I am involved in CIVIS because of my interest in student governance and international exchange, both of which I think should be cornerstones of the university alliance.

Nektaria-Kalliopi Tsori, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens 🇬🇷

Hello, Bonjour, Γεια σας,

My name is Nelly Tsori and I am currently in the 5th semester of my undergraduate studies in the Law School of National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. Believing that during their studies one should be encouraged not to focus solely on their specific scientific object, but also to broaden their horizons and to seize their place in a multicultural society, from the very beginning I considered CIVIS to be a great opportunity for students all across Europe to achieve these goals. Therefore, I am more than happy to be a part of this program and contribute to its further development in any possible way.
