Party Committee
This committee organises the biggest events of the year, with amazing parties and borrels to really get to know your fellow PPLE students and make the most out of your time in Amsterdam. Last year's highlights include the Boat Party and the Gala.
If organising some of the most memorable events of your university life and gaining valuable event management skills sounds like something for you, don't miss your chance to apply for the Party Committee!
Academic Committee
If you want to enhance PPLE students' academic career and promote personal growth outside the classroom, this is the perfect committee for you. Our Academic Committee encourages all kinds of talent to flourish and skills to develop. From debates cups to speaker events or a trip to ICC or the European Investment Bank- the possibilities for fun academic events seem almost endless. This year features the newly created positions of Travel Commissioner and Debate/Model UN Officer providing an exciting opportunity to pioneer the direction of the committee. Joining the Academic Committee will provide you lots of chances to broaden the PPLE curriculum with topics you are passionate for and satisfy your own curiosity.
AIMweek Committee
The AIMweek Committee is in charge of organizing events during the annual AIMweek (Welcoming week for first year uni students in the last week of summer holidays) specifically for PPLE students, to meet their fellow classmates, meet some of the older students, explore Amsterdam, get a first glimpse into uni life and create a chance to bond.
Freshmen Weekend Committee
The Freshmen Weekend usually happens in October, and is the best chance for the new first years to bond, make friends and get comfortable with each other. The Committee is responsible for the planning the activities and searching for a suitable location, but most importantly for making sure everyone is having a great time during this weekend.
Sports Committee
The relatively new committee that aims to strengthen the PPLE community by employing its competitive spirits. It will work to create fun and inclusive sports events for PPLE students to participate in with their friends and fellow students.
Do you want to connect your peers through fun competitions, share the joys of your favourite sport with your fellow students, and make AIM history? Then this is the right committee for you.
Awareness Committee
Is there something you've always wanted to raise awareness for but lacked the platform? The Awareness Committee is here to assure socially relevant issues get their due spotlight in our community. You will produce the AIM for change podcast, by choosing relevant topics, inviting speakers and making your voice heard. Last year's highlight included a speaker event, featuring topics such as pinkwashing and career growth. Everyone is invited to help and foster positive change - join this committee if you're serious about improving our community for the better.
Buddy Committee
The Buddy Committee plays an integral role in supporting freshmen in their integration into PPLE life. Managing the AIM Buddy Program, it pairs first-years with upperclassmen and organises various buddy events for PPLE students to grow closer. Last year's activities ranged from a painting event and hiking trip to exclusive buddy borrels.
If you are interested in meeting students from other years and want to be the one behind creating lasting friendships, you're more than welcome to join this committee (no matter your year)!
Arts Committee
The Arts Committee organises all kinds of art-related events, from visiting Amsterdam’s many museums and arranging a painting event for PPLE students to the legendary gingerbread house competition. Don't worry: artistic talent isn't required to participate in any of the events nor is it needed to join this committee. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the beauty of art - and if you want to be the one encouraging your fellow students' artistry and unleash their creative spirits, this is the committee for you.
Third Year Weekend Committee
Attention third-years: joining this committee will give you the chance to organize the perfect end to your time in PPLE. A weekend to party with the people you have gone through your Bacherlor's together is bound to be fun - but you can be the one to make it truly unforgettable.
You can decide what games and challenges to put your peers through and organize the party of a lifetime. Joining the Third-Year Committee means making the best out of this final bonding moment and make your time in PPLE end with a blast.
