Gathers students’ opinions and communicates them to the university leadership
Help shape the place you study in
The Student Council is the voice of the students. It represents your views, puts forward suggestions for improvement, and addresses feedback that affects the day-to-day running of NEWTON University. Want to make a change? Got an idea that could improve student life? The Student Council is here for you.
It acts as the official link between students and university leadership. The council is involved in decision-making, comments on proposed changes, and actively helps shape a better study environment.
What the Student Council Does
Develops proposals to improve teaching and the study environment
Identifies problems and seeks solutions
Informs students about important changes and decisions
Contributes to the development of the university and the quality of education
Can propose and implement new projects and activities
The Student Council consists of six local sub-councils, organised by place of study (Prague, Brno, Bratislava) and level of study (bachelor’s, master’s). Each is made up of representatives from individual year groups. The term of office for a member is up to three academic years, and it is possible to serve multiple terms.

Your Representatives
I’m currently in my final year of the bachelor’s programme in Management and Entrepreneurship. As a member of the Student Council, I represent students in key matters and contribute to improving the study environment. Outside academia, I have strong practical experience – I worked as an operations manager in a restaurant and gradually became a co-owner. This experience allowed me to connect my studies with real business and gain valuable managerial skills. Don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any student-related concerns.
David Nguyen
Student Council Representative, Management and Business student
I’m in my third year of the bachelor’s programme in Global Business and Management. My role is to connect students with the senior management of NEWTON – and vice versa. I’ve been running my own business for four years now, and during my studies I’ve always arranged my own internships to gain as much real-world experience as possible. I’m actively involved in student life, and you might have seen me as a host at NEWTON parties in Brno. Feel free to reach out to me with any student-related matters.
