What are my duties as mandatee in the student council?

As mandatee in the student council you'll need to represent the students of all the majors under your student council. This means, among other things, sending fitting students to each committe (commitee of setting the curriculum, appeal board etc.). Further you'll be representing your students at universities and helping them in their respective situation. Additionally you will do counseling which includes tutoring first time students  to make it easier for them to start a major. Each student council has access to a budget which will be used accordingly.

What are my duties as mandatee in the university representation?

You have a voting right at meetings, can create petitions and get a view of the work the chair does. Further you can let yourself be a candidate in a wide range of  commitees. You won't have any explicit duties except for  conscientiously and dutifully holding your mandate.
