Dear member of Kraket,

First of all I hope you are having a great summer break! When the next academic year starts, multiple committees will be formed, which means it is time to think about which committee(s) you would like to join next year. We are looking for enthusiastic committee members for the academic year 2024-2025!

Charity Committee (First years only)
The Charity Committee devises three possible concepts of an interactive activity or a long-term project with a charity for next year and presents this at the first General Assembly at the 18th of September. The members will take votes and choose the concept the committee will work on. For the rest of the year, you will host the annual auction and free activities together with the charity. Do you want to be part of this committee? Sign up!

Diversity and Development Day Committee 
The Diversity and Development Day is a growing success, with educational workshops, inspiring speakers and of course speed dating with potential employers. Together with your committee members, you will be responsible for planning this interesting day. Would you like to coordinate this eventful day, do you have organizational capacity and are you open-minded? Sign up! 

Ecotribune Committee
The Ecotribune is the informal magazine of Kraket containing photo collages, articles about activities that have taken place, interviews with members and funny quizzes. The magazine will be published four times a year. As a member of the Ecotribune Committee, you are involved in the whole process of making this magazine. From working with the design program Adobe InDesign to writing new articles and finding corresponding photos. Click here here for previous editions of the Ecotribune. Would you like to contribute to the Ecotribune? Sign up! 

Educational Committee 
The Educational Committee is going to be a newly formed committee this year and will consist of 2 students per year group, one from EOR and one from EDS. The primarily objective of this committee is to improve the learning experience for every student. As a member of this committee, you will play a crucial role in gathering feedback and suggesting improvements to teachers. Would you like to have a significant impact on everyone's educational journey? Sign up! 

First Year Committee
The First Year Committee is a great way to start your active membership with Kraket. You will organize two activities, a family day and you will guide the high school students who are curious how the life at the university will be. Does this committee seem nice to you? Sign up! 

Happy Hour Committee
The Happy Hour Committee organises various fun activities throughout the year. Among these activities are Sinterklaas, the EGW's (Ectrie Goes Wild's), the end of the year activity, a beer cantus and an activity you can put in your own creativity. These enjoyable activities bring Kraketters closer to each other. Would you like to be part of this committee and do you like to organise different activities? Sign up! 

International Committee
Note: this committee is open for Dutch students as well
The international Committee aims to be the point of contact for all our international members. You can help your fellow international students navigating through a big city like Amsterdam, and of course the VU. Besides, you will get the opportunity to organise three activities for the association. 

Kick-Off-Your-Career Committee
Note: this committee is only for students who will be a master student during the Kick-off-your-Career activity.
The Kick-off-your-Career committee is Kraket's newest career event where master students come into contact with various companies that will present a debate with challenging propositions. As a committee member of the Kick-off-your-career committee, you are responsible for organising this day, around May, where your fellow student may find their future employer. The organisation of this activity contains the search for a suitable location, finding interesting companies who will be present at a company fair and at the debate, and managing the day itself. Furthermore, lunch and dinner, such as a BBQ must not be forgotten. Do you want to work in a formal way as a Kraket committee member and do you want to get in touch with different companies? Do you want to improve your soft skills and give your CV a good boost? Then sign up quickly! 

SECTOR Committee
The SECTOR is the editorial committee of Kraket. Unlike the Ecotribune, the SECTOR focusses on companies and the substantive aspect of the study. It is an online platform where articles are published regularly. In recent years, SECTOR was filled with business interviews and articles written by professors and (graduated) students. Furthermore, there are many more interesting topics which appear in the SECTOR, click here for previous articles of the SECTOR. Do you want to be a part of this innovative committee where there is space enough to process your own ideas, and obtain great connections with students, professors and alumni? Then apply for this committee! 

Ski Trip Committee (First years only)
This year Kraket will go to Les Deux Alpes, France, in January. Do you love to ski, snowboard or après-ski and want to be part of the committee? Sign up! 

Sports & Games Committee
The Sports & Games Committee is an amazing opportunity to embrace your inner athlete and create lasting memories. In this committee, you are responsible for the exercise of our beloved members. While you normally compete in the UB (University Library), you are now going to compete on the field for the cup. Every once in a while, the Sports & Games Committee organizes a nice sporty activity and our yearly Game Marathon. Sign up! 

Study Trip Committee 
Note: this committee is only for third-year or higher students.
This year Kraket organises a short study trip for its third-year and higher students. During this trip you will visit companies, universities, and of course learn about the culture of the country. Do you have what it takes to organise a week filled with activities abroad? Then sign up! 

Sustainability Committee
The Sustainability Committee has been brought to life not too long ago and has been a great success ever since! In the world we live in today, sustainability is an important topic for the future of the world. Therefore, Kraket organizes a sustainability week. During this week, various activities centered around the topic will be organized every day, including a day where businesses will give presentations and present cases involving the topic of sustainabiltiy. Being part of this committee gives you the opportunity to experience both formal and informal aspects of being a committee member. Would you like to be part of this committee? Sign up! 

Still in doubt? Or do you have any unanswered questions about one of the committees? Just ask. You can always contact me (or someone else from the board).

Interested? Signing up is possible until and including September 4th 2024 by sending your motivation to intern@kraket.nl, or by filling in the form.

Kind regards,

Atakan Tektas Internal Affairs Officer & Vice Chairman Kraket 2024-2025
