Student participation

In Delft

Studentenraad
The student council of TU Delft represents the interests of students at the Executive Board. The council holds ten seats, which are held by party members of ORASLijst Bèta and DĂ© Partij.

Faculty Student Council
In the Netherlands, all students have the right to participate in their education. That is why every faculty has a Faculty Student Council (abbreviated FSC): a council for and by students, which actively ensures that the student's voice is heard. Through their right of consent, right of advice and right of initiative, council members can influence faculty policy.

DISS
The Delft International Student Society (DISS) was established by TU Delft’s central student council and VSSD former student union for the benefit of international students to act as the missing link between these students and the administration. DISS helps the student council and student union to successfully represent international students.

StudieVerenigingenRaad
The StudieVerenigingenRaad (SVR) is the umbrella body for all TU Delft student societies. Its main task is to stimulate collaboration and consultation between student societies.

Sport & Cultuur Verenigingen Raad
The Sports & Culture Associations Council (SCVR) aims to back the interests of student sports and culture associations and individual practitioners of student sports and culture in Delft. To achieve this, SCVR communicates closely with the many sports and culture associations affiliated with Delft University of Technology and X. Additionally, SCVR promotes the participation of Delft athletes in student sports activities (Batavierenrace, NSK’s, the GNSK), and hands out subsidies to stimulate this participation. SCVR is a member of StudentenSport Nederland.
