Board Sign-up
Welcome to the board interest page!
We would love to have you on board! ;)
In order for you to become a board member, we are interested in who you are as a person. For this reason, there is an application process in which you get to present yourself to the current board. This process is shaped in a way for you to get to know more ins and outs of doing a board year, but also to get to know which functions might suit you best!
So, are you interested? Please send your application to boardapplication@communique.utwente.nl
Your application can be anything from a letter to a presentation or even a video! Feel free to present yourself in any way you feel comfortable, that’s what suits you best :D. In order to get you some guidelines, here are some questions that we are interested in learning from you!

What can you expect after applying?
After applications close, we will plan a meeting with you to discuss your application. This is also nothing too formal, you will just have a meeting with the current board members who are fulfilling the function(s) you are most interested in. We will discuss a bit about your application and ask you some further questions as well as give you a more detailed idea of what the candidate period will look like! :D
