President of the Council Paulius Baltokas

VMU Students' Representative Council is an organization functioning since 1994. Over the years, its members and status has changed many times, but the mission – seeking welfare for the students, representing their interests at a local, national and international level – remained the same. The fundamental goals of the Council are: to help students solve their issues, explain the academic nuances of their own Alma Mater and in the field of Lithuanian Higher Education. The leisure activities of the students are not left behind either – every year, lots of various events are organized.

More information about the VMU Students' Representative Council's activities (in Lithuanian) is available on the Internet website vdusa.lt.

VMU Trade Union

Chairman Saulius Mickevičius

VMU Trade Union (TU) is a member of the  United Union of Professionals (JPS). JPS unites more than a dozen of professional associations from varying institutions and has gathered a lot of experience. Since 2008, the VMU TU is a member of the Lithuanian Higher Education School Trade Union Association (Lietuvos aukštųjų mokyklų profsąjungų susivienijimas, LAMPSS). The union represents all employees of the university and defends its members. If a member of VMU TU encounters a problem, he may inform any member of the Committee about it. After consulting the specialists of JPS, the members of the Committee will take the necessary measures. The highest governing body of the VMU TU is the members' meeting. The executive power belongs to the VMU TU Committee which comprises representatives from various university subdivisions. Unfortunately, not all subdivisions are represented yet. Please contact the Chairman of the Trade Union if you want to delegate a representative from your subdivision.
