About us

Who are we? What are we doing?

As the student representatives (in German: Fachgruppe), we represent all students from our Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes. Any student who comes to a meeting has a voice and a vote, and we invite everyone who is interested in helping us out or getting involved to be an active member. Ideally, we would like all semesters to be represented in our discussions.

We meet once a week for meetings in person, but you can also join online via Webex. To join, just come by to one of our weekly meetings, write us an e-mail or ask any student representative! In these meetings we plan events, discuss changes in the institute and hang out. As an active member of the student representatives, you will also get access to the Fachgruppe room using your student ID card as well as to the Fachgruppe wiki, where all our information, guides, files etc. are stored. If you want to know more, just ask us!

It is our job to help students! We:

  • represent student interests in both the study commission and the examination board
  • work on the design of the examination regulations and the syllabus
  • co-organize the welcome meeting for freshmen
  • organize events: We’re responsible for the summer party and the Christmas party at our institute as well as other parties, grilling events, pub crawls and Games Nights
  • provide exams and thesis examples of past terms
  • lend out laptops to students who need one temporarily
  • serve as student contacts for questions regarding studies and equal opportunities

The student representatives of the department of computer science (FIUS) additionally provide you even more support, such as a beginner’s Java course, locker rental and a freshmen weekend.
