Relaxed conversations in new seating areas, cool drinks and delicious food - plus a team competition that required speed and skill: that was the University of Siegen's Employee Festival 2025.

The University of Siegen has voted. The elections for the Senate, the Equal Opportunities Commission and the Faculty Council elections were held online for the first time in 2025. The results are now available.

Seven new trainees are starting their careers at the University of Siegen this summer. To make it easier for them to get started and feel less like strangers on their first day, the young people have already attended a Welcome Day at the university.

Michael Neef, Managing Director of Faculty II (Education Architecture Arts), passed away suddenly and far too early on March 4, 2025 at the age of 59. The University mourns the loss of a valued and valuable colleague, and our sincere condolences go out to his family.

A language course, intercultural training and a short stay abroad - employees in technology and administration can now train their intercultural skills and obtain a certificate.

Local elections will be held in North Rhine-Westphalia on September 14, 2025. There could also be run-off elections on September 28, 2025. Polling assistants must be appointed for these election(s).
