HYY Is a Parliamentary Democracy

The administration of the Student Union is similar to that of the Republic of Finland. The Student Union members elect 60 representatives from among themselves in democratic elections. The next elections will be held in the autumn of 2009. The Representative Council annually appoints the Board to lead the activities of the Student Union.

The Board has a parliamentary liability for the Representative Council. The Secretariat assists the Board in preparing and implementing affairs. The Secretariat is divided into different divisions which focus on their special fields such as the educational or social affairs in the same way as ministries on a national scale. Additionally, different committees function within HYY.
