Study Environment Council

The Study Environment Council has been appointed by the Executive Management of Aalborg University. The Study Environment Council aims to ensure that Aalborg University’s degree programmes are based in an attractive study environment which is supportive of problem-based and project-based learning. 

The Study Environment Council implements cross-organisational initiatives to improve the physical, psychological, aesthetic and digital educational environment at department level. The council is responsible for ensuring that Aalborg University complies with Danish legislation* and follows up on other agreements made in the area of educational environment (such as in Aalborg University’s Development Contract). Furthermore, the Study Environment Council is responsible for the strategic and long-term development of the study environment and for initiating student-run pilot projects and development projects on the study environment.
