About us
DAS stands for "De Ambitieuze Student". We are a student fraction in the University Council. DAS focuses on representing the ambitious students that want to develop themselves alongside their studies. For example, through participating in extra-curricular activities like being active in an association, student team or anything else.
In short, as a student fraction we are able to influence decisions made by the Executive Board of the TU/e. As you can imagine, these decisions have a large impact on students. DAS focuses on representing the ambitious students, for example through enabling students to study in a more flexible way and working on improving online education. This can range from being active in a study, student or sports association, being in a student team or just wanting to achieve more than a diploma on a piece of paper during your time as a student. Aside from the University Council, DAS is also actively involved in the municipality, and represents the student's voice in the ongoing discussions on student housing in Eindhoven.
