NeurotechEU Student Council - Workgroups

Welcome to the NeurotechEU Student Council!

The Neurotech^EU Student Council officially got together in the autumn of 2020 and represents students’ opinions across the Neurotech^EU work packages, Board of Governors and Board of Rectors. Here, there is representation from all the 8 alliance Universities, working on different aspects of furthering the mission of the Neurotech^EU .

Who is The NeurotechEU Student Council (NtSc)?

The NtSc is constituted by 3-4 student representatives of each University of the alliance (32 in total), and whose aims are:

To represent the interests of all students enrolled at the Neurotech^EU alliance members and ensure equitable opportunities.

To facilitate exchanges of knowledge and experiences between students within academia, industry and society.

To assist with skill transfer that enables open discussion and collaboration.

In addition to this, the NtSc forms working groups and supports student activities at the alliance members through advice and shared experience..
