Academic
The Academic Committee is resolute in its support of members (and also non-members) through their academic journeys. To this end the Committee ensures that informative and useful notes are available for purchase for members to be used as a supplement to the course information provided to them by the RUG. Furthermore, the Committee also organizes crash courses at the end of every block, that help students revise the content taught in that block. Additionally, they are responsible for entering into contracts with note-takers.
Social Support
The Social Support Committee, prides itself in being the point of contact for those who need a person to talk to. Its members focus on being present at a time of need for their fellow students. The Committee ensures that any student going through a tough time while at the RUG has a net of support they can rely on. Through its 'Buddy Program' the Committee tries to maintain a system of support for their fellow students.

Journals
The Journal Committee is responsible for the Nexus Journal as well as the Nexus Newsletter. Through the former they ensure that students, are informed about geopolitical environmental and legal topics occurring around them. This involves researching, writing and publishing Journal, entries at the end of every block. Through the Newsletter the Committee ensures that members are aware and informed about important occurrences, the outcome of Nexus events and much more in a more brief and frequent manner.
Communications and Media
The Communications and Media Committee focuses on ensuring that members are duly informed of anything planned by the Association. As such members of the Committee ensure the smooth flow of information, primarily through social media, between Nexus and its members. They work on the Nexus Instagram, Facebook and TikTok. The Committee is also tasked with ensuring that Nexus Events, Coferences, and Moot Courts, among others, are photographed and advertised.

Podcast
The Podcast Committee is responsible primarily for the production of the Nexus Podcast. They ensure that, if inclined, members can lend an ear to interesting geopolitical, environmental and current affairs discussions that have a legal aspect to them. The Committee focuses on researching any topics at hand, and then engaging in explorative and meaningful discussions about them with experts (such as Professors etc.). Therefore, they produce content of an auditory nature for the Association.
Auditors
The Auditors are a Committee comprised of students that are nominally independent of the Association. They function autonomously of any directive from the General Board, and provide the Board with an audit of the Association's finances. As such they ensure that the Association has not gone overbudget and enable the financially-sustainable running of Nexus
