AStA

Departmental student committees
Once a year, the students of the various departments elect their departmental student committee, FSR for short. The FSR represents the students both within the department and externally. They organize trips, games evenings and parties, as well as providing support if there are difficulties with professors or members of staff.At an academic level, too, the FSR represents the students through its seats on the faculty council. Here decisions are made about the distribution of funds, new professorships and study and examination regulations.
