Put an end to high rents and rising prices, poor learning and working conditions and tuition fees. Real change does not happen in the student council. Together we fight for our interests not just at the uni – we fight on the streets and in the trade unions.

Froschliste
We are the FSI-WiSo – an independent, university-politics group made up of motivated Bachelor’s and Master’s students from all degree programs within the School of Business, Economics, and Society at FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg. Our primary goal is to actively represent student interests and needs, while also helping to shape university life at our faculty. We place a special focus on the continuous development and improvement of our department. To do justice to this responsibility, we are active on several levels: On one hand, we advocate for you within university politics, running in the annual university elections to represent your interests before professors and staff. On the other hand, we are here to offer peer-to-peer advice and guidance. Alongside this political work, our main focus is organizing various events and parties to bring campus life to life together. Every single student in the department is warmly invited to get involved and join us!

FSIen-Liste
Dear students, we are the FSI List!
We are active in the FSI student councils, organize summer festivals, quiz nights, and more as non-partisan students at FAU. Some of us are already represented on many committees, such as the Convention or the Senate.
Through our work in the FSIen, we are in close contact with numerous students, which allows us to address everyday problems and concerns related to your studies.
📍 As a slate, we are committed to ensuring that your studies take place under the best possible conditions, with a focus on well-being at the university, quality teaching, and a stronger community, thereby creating an ideal environment for EVERYONE.
📍As a slate, we want FAU to place greater emphasis on everyone’s well-being. To this end, we call for processes that are tailored to YOUR needs and are transparent, in order to make FAU accessible to everyone and to provide the best possible support throughout your studies. Central to this is consistent equality for all, as well as flexibility in the structure of the program, so that students can pursue their studies to the best of their ability despite any obstacles. Greater involvement of international students at FAU should ensure that our campus becomes even more diverse.
📍As a slate, we are committed to the sustainable development of our FAU. To achieve this, we need streamlined digital processes, future-proof and climate-friendly building design, as well as ecologically valuable green spaces for recreation. We also prioritize the affordability of tuition, dining halls and cafeterias, and housing.
Now it’s up to you to ensure that we can advocate for these goals in the Student Council in the future. You are our motivation to do our best for you!

Juso x Grüne Liste
We are fighting for a FAU that is united, fair, and sustainable! As Juso x Grüne Liste, we stand for diversity, social justice, and environmental protection. We call for genuine democracy, social justice, climate neutrality, and an end to discrimination. Our core goals: more learning spaces, free menstrual products, and ecological transformation.
