Student Council

The Student Self-Government Body of Sumy National Agrarian University is a voluntary association of faculty-level student self-governance bodies, clubs, and interest-based centers at SNAU. It serves as an advisory and consultative body under the university’s rectorate, aiming to represent students’ opinions, defend their rights, and ensure their participation in university governance. Each faculty has its own student self-government body, whose head is automatically a member of the Student Self-Government Body of Sumy National Agrarian University. The organization is independent of political, religious, and other public associations or organizations.

The Student Self-Government Body consists of the Student Rectorate and faculty representatives. The Student Rectorate includes an elected Chairperson (Student Rector), First Student Vice-Rector, and Student Vice-Rectors responsible for various areas: scientific work, sports, volunteer and charity activities, career and information affairs, external relations, social and living conditions, and cultural and educational initiatives. Additionally, the Secretary, appointed by the Chairperson, is part of the structure. Each member organizes cultural, artistic, charitable, and sports events, implements numerous ideas and projects, and establishes partnerships with various organizations.
