Digital voting

Last semester, the Student Council started working on convincing ITU to let students vote digitally rather than physically. We’ve made significant progress in this regard, and been told that they would like to do a test run for the 2018 election, using Helios Voting.

CANDIDATES for ITU Election 2017

Emma Arfelt Kock

SAT Computer Science

My name is Emma and I study SDT Advanced Computing at my first semester. Prior to this I finished my bachelors degree in Software Development. I am running for SAT software, because I want to empower students and make our voices heard. As Software Development is growing and a new master for Software is being development I think it is important that decisions and concerns regarding students are being heard. Last year I worked together with Study Managers to remove a barrier that prevented Bachelor students to take MSc courses as electives, which is an example of an unsuitable decision that harmed the student’s individual freedom to influence their course of study and point it in the direction they want. Moreover, I’m also a chairman of Cafe Analog and an occasional DJ in Scrollbar.

A vote for Honesty and Persistency

Lea Gerhard Porsmose Hansen

SAT Digital Communication

I decided to run to ensure that the voice of DDK would be heard.

Who else?

Ida Thrane

SAT Computer Science

I am running for better ITU

Anne Louise Slott Thorborg

SAT Digital Communication

Coming to ITU with a bachelor from another institution has been a bit challenging. I want to make this transition feel smoother with introduction courses and more knowledge sharing from the students on our program who took their bachelor at ITU. The knowledge sharing should go both ways, so we all can benefit from each other’s different qualifications, and create a more open environment among all students at ITU.

The final and official candidate lists have now been published! Please note that only the following elections are contested this year:

TAP for Board of Directors (By-Election) –> Students cannot vote for this one

For the remaining electoral bodies, there are no more candidates than seats, and the candidates are elected automatically in a prioritised manner. Therefore, the Games and Business students are not able to participate in the voting as they already have their representatives elected automatically.
