You have to stand on a candidate list, whether you choose to stand alone or together with others.
Your nomination is submitted electronically by either creating a candidate list yourself in the election system or by accepting an electronic invitation to run on someone else's candidate list. You will receive the invitation to run on someone else's list via your AAU email.
Registration for election has expired.
Guide on how to create a candidate list can be found here.
All candidate lists must be submitted by the deadline, October 25 at 12 noon, in order to be approved.
Contact valgsekretariatet@adm.aau.dk for questions regarding nomination.
Naming a candidate list
It is up to you to decide the name of your candidate list, but the name of the list must not indicate which sub-election the list relates to. For example, you must not name your list "Study Board of xxx" or "Department of xxx" - nor a known abbreviation for this. If you do not stand for any associations, and there is only yourself on the list, you can, for example, choose to name the list with your own name.
Equal or prioritised ranking?
Equal ranking means that the candidates' personal votes are decisive for the result.
Prioritised ranking means that the candidates who are first on the list are typically elected first.
Read more about the meaning of ranking under Rules. If you do not run with others but only on your own list, it does not matter whether you choose ranked or prioritised ranking.
