Student Council

Khalifa University strongly believes in students' active participation in the governance of the institute. Every student on campus, undergraduate or graduate, is eligible to serve on the Student Council.

The purpose of the Student Council is to provide a platform that promotes interaction between students and the University body. The Student Council works closely with Student Services to foster a spirit of community, understanding, and harmony throughout the campuses. The work of the Council also aims to promote student advocacy, leadership skills and contributes to enriching campus life. The Student Council encourages active participation in university governance, events, committee representation, student town hall meetings, and many student activities.
