Discontinuation of the Cooperation with the NEXT Career Fair

Dear Fellow Students, Many of you may be familiar with the NEXT career fair. Those of you who have been at university for a longer period of time may even remember its predecessor, the FiT. Organizing career fairs at the SIC has been an integral part to our students’ council work for over 25 years. For many years, we have solely organised the “Firmeninformationstage” (FiT, “Company Information Days”). For a few years, the main organisation of the job fair has been taken over by the Career Center (Triathlon) of the university. The Students’ Council was still a major part of these job fairs, especially in the set-up, planning assistance and the support of exhibitors. The cooperation with Triathlon was specified in a separate cooperative contract. This contract was cancelled by Triathlon at the end of last year, due to a shift in responsibilities required from the Students’ Council and the responsibilities laid down in the contract. However, both Triathlon and the Students’ Council were both interested in specifying a new contract to continue this cooperation. After long and difficult negotiations with Triathlon, we want to inform you that we could not come down to terms that would have been agreeable for both sides. For this reason, the Students’ Council has decided in a recent internal meeting to discontinue the cooperation with Triathlon regarding the NEXT career fair. The reasons for this decision are manyfold. While the organisation of the FiT, and later the first years of the NEXT, was carried out with a lot of passion and conviction by the involved members, this has increasingly faded in the last years. NEXT increasingly changed from a persuasion project to an “obligation”, sometimes even a burden. One reason for this is, that the NEXT itself has evolved. From a career fair aimed…

Transparency on our own behalf: “Fachschaftseuro”

It may have gone unnoticed by most of you, but the last year brought a big change for Students’ Councils: The informally called “Fachschaftseuro” (“Students’ Council Euro”), gave Students’ Councils from all fields of studies new and better ways to organize and finance events for their students. What does that mean specifically? As you all know, you have to pay the Semesterbeitrag for each semester you are studying here at university. A small portion of that is a contribution to the general students body (“allgemeiner Studierendenbeitrag”); currently this contribution is 13€ per semester. This contribution goes into the students’ body funds and is administered by the StuPa (Student Parliament). Since the last year, Students’ Council can request funds from this money to organize their events. How much exactly can they use? This mainly depends on the number of students, that a Students’ Council represents and is regulated by the Fachschaftsetat. In short: Each council gets a base amount of 200€ plus an additional 0,66€ for each student in their main subject. There are slightly differing amounts e.g. for teaching students as they are represented by multiple Students’ Councils. We also made use of this fund throughout the last year to finance some of our events for you. In total, we used 1,525.98 € in the year 2023. We want to be fully transparent about our usage of these funds. Therefore, we have created a small summary into which events these funds went:
