Student Union of the University of Oulu - OYY provides services to and supervises the interests of all undergraduate degree students in the University of Oulu. The position of the Student Union is decreed by law. The Universities Act states that all undergraduate students are members and that the Student Union acts on their behalf.

All our actions are based on the premise of a good life for students.

OYY’s highest authority is held by the Student Union Council of Representatives. The Council consists of 37 students representing all the members of OYY and elected by them every other year. Each and every member can stand as a candidate to the Council.

Executive power is held by the board of 6-10 people. Get to know the board and read the summaries of their decisions here.
