Student Council
Want to create your own student organization? Follow the official instructions. For organizing an event, use the event organizer plan.
Every year, with the support of the Youth Projects Center, students organize and hold numerous events, acquiring skills as event managers, organizers, photographers, videographers, trainers, and so on, alongside their studies. To confirm their activities, students can request a Confirmation Letter from the Youth Projects Center. You can find out how to do this via the link.
You can also contact the YPC for support if you want to take part in activities outside the HSE University: for example, to attend a creative competition held in another city. The main thing is to do it in advance and follow the instructions on the website!
