Student Council

The International University in Geneva has a strong student council active in areas such as social activities, community service and advocacy. Weekly meetings are held to resolve student issues and to recommend and implement changes to the current student environment. Specific activities include preparing the annual yearbook, community service events with the United Nations and UNICEF, and cultural excursions in Switzerland and beyond.

Letter from the Student Council President:

Dear prospective students

It has been a great honour to be in office as Student Council President of IUG. The Student Council is an initiative launched by the students in order to act as a buffer zone between the wants and needs of the student body and the university.  The Student Council is involved directly with social events, advocacy, charity and curriculum issues.
Students with outstanding academic performance and innovative, constructive ideas and thoughts of the university are encouraged to join each semester. Every year two candidates will be elected to govern the Student Council acting as President and Vice President.

My personal testimonial as an active Student Council member for three years can solely state that it has definitely been an enjoyable learning experience, and I highly recommend others to participate in order to continue to improve the well-being of the student body at IUG.

Student Council President 2008/2009
