Involve more international students in decision-making processes
Tilburg University wants to further internationalize its curriculum and its campus. One of the university’s objectives in this context is to have more international students participate in its decision-making processes in the coming years. International students are underrepresented in most participation bodies. To get more insight into the things that international students find important, the student parties represented in the participation bodies, namely Vrijspraak, Stimulus, Dante, ECCO, and SAM, are organizing a symposium entitled ‘Do you feel represented?!’.
