Submit your election proposal for the 2025 university elections

From today you can submit election proposals for the university election!
Your list for the election has already been drawn up and everyone has filled in their declaration of consent? Then take it to the electoral office. This way you can get to know the university’s new administration building, because the electoral office is no longer located in the Schloss, but in Freyeslebenstraße 1, 91058 Erlangen, floor 03, room number 03.5234.
Are there still people, supporters or declarations of consent missing? You still have a few days left. Election proposals can be submitted until 06.05.25, 4 pm.
All information and forms can be found on the website of the electoral office.
Take part, seize the opportunity to help shape the FAU and give others the chance to vote for you.

Echt oder Fake

If you’ve always wanted to win huge amounts of noodles, mate or muesli (or if you just want to have a fun evening), then come to H11 in Cauerstr. 11 on the evening of 8 May and try to expose your lecturers during their real or fake lectures. ‘Echt oder Fake’ is the perfect mix of science slam and lecture theatre quiz that you really don’t want to miss!
The whole thing is organised by the FSV-Nat, but students from all faculties are welcome. Admission is from 6pm, group size is about 3-6 people and snacks and drinks will be available. The first lecture starts at 6.30 pm. We look forward to seeing you there!
