To help you find the following rooms and locations, we recommend using the Campus Navigator.

Who we are:
As Faculty Student Council (FSR), we are students ourselves and therefore know many questions and problems related to studying. We can often provide answers ourselves, but we also attend committees, work in the student council and are active in various committees.
The FSR Social Education, Social Work and Welfare Science currently consists of ten elected members and other associated members and meets once a week during the lecture period. Office hours are announced at the beginning of the new semester.
Our aim is to represent the interests of the students both university-wide and within the faculty in the best possible way. This includes the following tasks:
● Participation in committees (e.g. Institute Council, Examination & Study Commission & StuRa)
● Advice
● Contact with lecturers
● Information (homepage, newsletter etc.)
● Organization of events and parties
● Organization of first semester events
