Student Life
The University students exercise self-governance through the Student Council (established in 1996). The Council aims to actively participate in the University life and assist in promoting discussion and resolution of urgent issues in the academic process, and in social life of the students.
The Council actively cooperates with the Student Councils of different Universities in Armenia and abroad. The SC organizes graduation ceremonies, publication of the “Polyglot-New” newspaper; round table discussions, intellectual games, conferences, workshops and seminars, etc. YSLU students work as volunteers in various organizations and closely cooperate with YSLU Career Center. The students regularly visit different orphanages in Yerevan and regions, organize different sport, scientific and cultural events.
