Student councils are organizations representing the interests of students in higher education through student representatives elected by the students. Every institution has a student council and its main task is to represent the interests of students within the councils of the institution, to harmonize expectations between students and teachers, to organize cultural and community events, to help students in finding accommodation and jobs, and to provide legal advice.

PhD students have student status but their organization is an independent national federation financed via membership fees. Its goal is to become a professional platform for all PhD students. Since 1997 they have had regular conferences, organised annually, at which young scientists and researchers have been able to present their latest research and findings.
