The Presidium of the Student Trade Union Committee (STUC) of
Azerbaijan State Oil and Industry University (ASOIU) consists
of 17 members, including the Chairman and 7 faculty chairs.
Each student of the university is a member of STUC.
The Student Trade Union Committee is the only organization
that upholds the rights of students. STUC carries out the
following activities: contributes to students' development by
involving them in social activities; provides the students
with accommodation in dormitories; keeps an eye on the
students' discipline inside of the university; helps the
students to spend their leisure time productively; organizes
summer camps; rewards STUC members who take active
participation in the social and scientific life of the
university.
The Student Trade Union Committee of ASOIU includes a sports
club that unites 12 types of sports (football, volleyball,
handball, basketball, judo, freestyle wrestling, Greco-Roman
wrestling, table tennis, chess, checkers, etc.) The members of
the sports club have always been distinguished for their
achievements.
The Committee also has the song and dance ensemble "Ganjlik",
the university's brand with a 51-year-old history, the only
"National ensemble" among the amateur teams. The ensemble has
participated in several festivals held in European countries
(Germany, Moldova, Ukraine, Turkey) and Korea, representing
the country and the university at the highest level and
returning to the motherland with great achievements. In all
the domestic competitions, the ensemble either became the
winner or took 2nd place in the worst case. In 2016 the song
and dance ensemble "Ganjlik" won 1st place among the
professionals.
The ASOIU Theatre Club (ATK) operates under the Committee as
well. Gifted students regularly take part in the plays and
perform them in front of the university audience.
The intellectual club "Magnat" and "ASOIU Debate Club", also
functioning under the Student Trade Union Committee, make a
significant contribution to the intellectual development of
students. The intellectual club "Magnat" consists of teams
that take part in tournaments such as "Who? Where? When?",
"Brain ring", "Hamsa", and systematically provides the
organization of intellectual competitions inside the
university. "ASOIU Debate Club" aims to assist the students in
forming a smooth and clear speech, develop public speaking
skills and justify their opinions. During the weekends, the
club holds university championships, participates in national
tournaments and receives high results.
The "Club for funny and resourceful people" (KVN) has been
operating in the university since 2016. Despite its recent
establishment, our team "Azneft" has already become a national
champion.
