About Us
The Nanyang Junior College Student Council represents the main medium of communication between the school management and the student body. It seeks to ensure that the voice of every NYJCian is heard and that their well-being is taken care of. The Student Council also plays a major role in overseeing various student activities and initiatives that serve the collective interests of the school and the students. To facilitate the achievement of this objective, the Student Council is divided up into four distinct committees; namely, the Executive (ExCo), Communications (CC), Welfare (Welco) as well as College Image and Branding (CIB) Committees.
Executive Committee
The seven-member Executive Committee forms the policy-making and leadership body of the council and is made up of the President, three Vice-presidents and three committee heads. The Executive Committee helps to set the direction and objectives of council and acts as the council's main steering wheel. The President and the three Vice-Presidents oversee all internal programmes and events helmed by the Student Council, ensuring that they are aligned with the council's mission and vision.
