When do I contact the student representative?

All students at Mittuniversitetet i Östersund can get advice and members of the corps also get additional help in the form of the student representative representing them in the matter if desired. Corps membership gives that little something extra.

The student representative is a full-time employee and has several years of experience in working with student legal issues.

When you contact the student representative, we get information about what works and what doesn't at the university and can raise this with people at different levels within Mittuniversitetet to bring about a change. Even if your problem is not a formal rule or law violation by the university, it may be something that can be improved in order to increase the quality of education.

Personal data management

The student union in Östersund's student representative works continuously with individual student/doctoral matters. With this work, it also follows that the agent handles personal data. As of May 25, 2018, personal data is handled in accordance with the new data protection regulation (GDPR). This means that if you contact the representative to get support and help, we will ask for your consent to handle your personal data. Examples of personal data that we handle are names and contact information such as e-mail address that we need to be able to work with your case. You can of course always choose to contact the representative anonymously and ask questions, then we do not need your personal data. When contacting us, you can ask for a case number, which is good to save when you contact us, see point 5 below.
