Department of Higher Education Politics

Be it negotiating with university or different political representatives, the department of Higher Education Politics is always taking part in the front lines. It is the central control hub of student politics at the TU Chemnitz in regard to its dealings with the university management and other key institutions, such as the Saxon State Ministry for Science, Culture and Tourism in Dresden. Nevertheless the department remains politically neutral.

Current Topics

  • Collaboration between the students council and the Rector of TU Chemnitz on current higher education policy issues
  • Supporting the university on the rocky path toward system accreditation
  • Drastic budget cuts (state-wide and local)
  • Participation in the State Students Council "KSS" (Conference of Saxony Students)
  • Target agreements between the university and the Free State of Saxony
  • Consolidation of teacher training degree programmes at TUC (including the Teacher Training student representatives)

Further informations

  • Networking of higher education policy stakeholders
  • Point of contact for higher education policy issues
  • Mediator for higher education policy matters

Participate

We are looking for ambitious students to join our department who want to take an active role in shaping higher education policy at our university, within Saxony, and on a national level. We value initiative and creative input. The range of tasks is broad, covering everything from policy work and public relations to the organisation of major projects, such as demonstrations and campaigns.
