Student wellbeing and influence projects extended

Mid Sweden University works actively to be a higher education institution that puts students at the center, which is why the project on student social activities and influence has now been extended for another six months. Specifically, it is about getting students to be attracted to our campuses, and partly about getting the students who study at Mid Sweden University to enjoy themselves even more and want to stay after completing their education. 

A vibrant campus

By identifying good examples and working methods and doing different kinds of targeted activities, the goal is for Mid Sweden University to stand out nationally, says Emanuel Magnusson.
"The first part of the project was completed in the spring, and some of the concrete views that emerged are about culture, treatment and identity linked to being a student and employee at Miun. It is also about strengthening the student unions and thus also contributing to a vibrant campus.

Test different ideas

The project has had two different focus areas, one is the student welfare area, which includes initiatives for physical and mental health, advice and support in issues in the social area, reception activities such as the placement of housing and working life contacts, On the other hand, student influence, which is about ensuring that students have the opportunity to influence their education in various ways.
"The continued work this autumn will revolve around organizing and testing different ideas in both Sundsvall and Östersund. There is a great deal of interest in these issues, both internally and externally, and collaborating on this to strengthen our common region is very important," he says.
