Current board

The board of the association ORAS consists of four students with different study backgrounds who are active in different associations. The board consists of three (standard) board members (chairman, secretary and treasurer) and a fourth board member (the general board member) who is also a member of the faction. This guarantees good communication and cooperation between the board and the faction. The association consists of about 200 students who look beyond study matters and are interested in participation and policy making within the TU Delft.

The association consists of several bodies: among others, the board, the faction group, the Advisory Board and its members (General Members Assembly). The board convenes the General Members Assembly (GMA) four times per academic year and organizes monthly get-togethers and activities for both members and interested students.

Since academic year 2013-2014 the board functions as an independent body, previously board tasks were divided among the faction members. This means that the independent board can actively focus on recruiting new members, organizing drinks and activities, and growing the association ORAS. In addition to the standard management tasks such as leading meetings, keeping finances up to date and acting as a contact point within the association, the board is also committed to organizing interesting events. Think of a large symposium, a debate with political heroes or administrators, interesting lectures, etc.

The board is actively looking for new members! Interested students can become a member of ORAS. The ORAS members together form a friendly, an interested club of people from different study and association backgrounds who exchange ideas and discuss the more political matters of the TU Delft.

Would you also like to talk about what the faction does in the student council, share your opinion on certain topics and share your ideas? Then become a member of the association ORAS and let your voice be heard! Word dan lid van de vereniging ORAS en laat je stem horen!

Hi Hi! My name is Sophie. This year I will be busy within the ORAS board as secretary.

It is also important that the membership administration is in order. In short, I will have to keep abreast of everything and keep everyone informed!
