Departments and Working Groups
In order to open up participation in the student council to all students, the Stuve has created opportunities to get involved even without being elected or committed! These opportunities are currently embodied in seven permanent departments and additional working groups on current topics.
In the meantime, speakers are proposed from the departments, who must be confirmed by the Student Convention. These permanent contact persons have the task of organizing and structuring the work in their department.
