What is ULS?

Ultuna Student Union

Ultuna Studentkår är Kåren för alla studenter vid Fakulteten för naturresurser och jordbruksvetenskap (NJ), vissa studenter vid Fakulteten för veterinärmedicin och husdjur (VH), vissa studenter vid Fakulteten för landskapsarkitektur, trädgårds- och växtproduktionsvetenskap (LTV) och vissa studenter vid Fakulteten för skogsvetenskap (S).
Veterinary students and animal nurse students have their own Union. Veterinärmedicinska Föreningen (VMF)
As a new student of a programme you'll get to know more about signing up during the welcoming weeks.

Life in the Union House

The union house is the center of the union. The union board and many of the committees have their offices here. There's also a (small) library, meeting rooms, bar and a dance floor. In the daytime you can heat and eat your lunch here. The union house is an excellent place to be if you want to meet new people.

In the afternoon and evenings the union house usually is buzzing with activity. The study councils have meetings, Ultunesaren is working with the paper, the choirs is singing and FiQ is baking. This is just a sample of what might be going on!

Union involvement

The union's three main tasks are education monitoring, student welfare and business connections. As you can tell, the union has a broad range of activities and there's always something for everyone. Take this opportunity to involve yourself during your time as a student for the experience, knowledge and friendships.

Organization

The highest decision-making body is the union meeting. Five regular union meetings are held each year where major issues are decided and union elections are held (elections to various positions in the union). The union board is the union's highest executive body. The union board consists of 9 positions, 3 of which work full time at the union.
