The unique structure of Magister JFT.
Magister JFT is the legal faculty association of Tilburg Law School. At TLS there are students from many different studies; law, public administration, business law and many more. Magister JFT has a unique structure, with different chambers, a student party and many central committees to ensure that there is a place for all these students!.
Magister JFT is an umbrella association for students at TLS. The General Board of the Association manages the Association as a whole. The Daily Board takes care of the daily management tasks, has contact with external parties and coordinates the central committees. The central committees are open to students of all disciplines and organise activities for all members. For example, the monthly drinks, parties or the Legal Business Days.
Magister JFT also has 'chambers': these are parts of the Association that focus on specific study programmes: Magister JFT | Justitia is the Chamber for students that follow the Dutch Law or Business Law course. Magister JFT | Juribes is the Chamber for students that follow the Public Administration or Public Governance and Strategy course. Last but not least; Magister JFT | Global Law. Magister JFT | Global Law is the Chamber for students that follow the Global Law course.
Every chamber has its own board. This board is responsible for making policy for their chamber, supervising committees and organising activities related to the study programme(s) of the Chamber. These activities can be a lecture in a certain field of law, a debate or just a fun drink!
Besides the chambers, Magister JFT also has a student party: Vrijspraak, student party of Magister JFT. The student party is there for all students of TLS and has a voice within the faculty. Is this something for you? Then join a committee of Vrijspraak!
Finally, Magister JFT | DiCiT is the pleading association of Magister JFT. Magister JFT | DiCiT organises interesting pleading nights, trainings and some informal events. Magister JFT | DiCiT also organises the Top Lawyer Wanted (TAG) event in collaboration with a Lawfirm.
