Structure
Structure
As its name indicates, the FEUQ works according to a federative model, meaning that its positions are the result of consultation and consensus between its 15 member associations, which represent more than 120,000 Quebec university students. The Federation thus undertakes the required actions to fulfil the mandates and orientations given to it by its 15 student associations.
- Annual General Assembly
- The annual general assembly is the most important decision-making body of the FEUQ, and it marks the end of one academic year and the beginning of another. The general assembly establishes the Federation’s major orientations for the coming year. It is also where member student associations elect the members of the new executive committee.
- The Congress
- All decisions, be they political, financial, philosophical, academic or functional, are made by the congress using weighted voting and must receive a two-thirds majority of support. Nevertheless, the Federation’s prefers decision-making through consensus whenever possible, as this gives more weight and legitimacy to its decisions and actions.
- However, any motion that is voted upon by the congress is first discussed in an appropriate sub-committee, known as the commissions.
- The Commissions
- The FEUQ's commissions are theme-oriented. A commission must first adopt a proposal before it can then be debated and voted on in a plenary session of the congress.
- The University Affairs Commission (CAU) discusses issues related to the quality of education and university policies.
- The Socio-political Affairs Commission (CASP) mainly discusses youth policies and financial assistance issues.
- The Institutional Affairs Commission (CAI) discusses internal and organizational affairs such as the Federation’s finances or its human resources management policy.
- Finally, the Quebec Council for Graduate Studies of the Quebec Federation of University Students (CNCS-FEUQ) brings together all of the member associations who represent graduate students. The CNCS discusses issues related to subsidized research, the status of student-researchers, certain internal files and some social questions such as the difficulties faced by students wishing to start a family.
