To reach its goals ASAH has a board that oversees its welfare. The board consists of three members this year. Depending on the office of the board members, he or she can have the responsibility over one or more committees. A board member is an ambassador of the association. One represents the student association at various functions. Where possible the board operates on equal standing. It meets at least once a week in order to take strategic decisions concerning the association and its members.
