The elections for the Tallinn University Student Union Representative Council have begun
Come and apply, because the council is an important representative and decision-making body at the university, where we, active students, can have a say on important issues.

As a council member, you also become involved in solving students’ concerns, participating in national-level important issues, and contributing to the work of committees and working groups.
