Lots of activities
We organize a wide range of activities exclusively for our members, such as the introduction period, student dinners, and all the great events hosted by the student sections. From time to time, we’re also out on campus treating our members to something nice—keep an eye out!
Great discounts and member benefits
Örebro Student Union collaborates with various campus actors, a range of organizations and companies, as well as Örebro Municipality, to offer members discounts and benefits. This means you, as a member, have more money left in your pocket at the end of the month.
Shape a better study environment
Having well-maintained study spaces and feeling safe in your study environment is essential for you to perform at your best as a student. That is why the Student Union works to ensure that your study environment is as good and safe as possible.
A livelier campus
Örebro Student Union supports several student associations at Örebro University. Through these, we help create a more vibrant and diverse student life, with events ranging from political debates and sports activities to student performances and formal dinners. In other words, there is something for everyone!
Stay informed about your rights
The Student & phd Student representetive at the Student Union ensures your rights are protected and supports you if you experience unfair treatment during your studies.
Your section
All student sections are part of the Örebro Student Union. The student sections organize activities tailored to you and your programme of study.

A national student voice
