Financial support for culture and sports

The Student Council is happy to support various projects, events, participation in university championships and more. Please note that for all financial support, the payout of the approved funds is dependent on a submitted accounting and is generally only made afterwards. You can find more details on this in the respective section:

Cultural events

The StuRa supports a variety of events and projects. Popular classics are, for example, Christmas parties organised by subject groups, lecture series, the Indian Festival of Lights or various themed evenings.

It is important for funding from the StuRa that the events or projects have nothing to do with teaching. No one may receive credit points in their degree programme as part of this project or event.

If you would like to receive funding for an event or project, we need the following documents from you:

  • a brief description/concept
  • a calculation with all planned expenses and income for this event/project

Corresponding templates are available at Downloads. The support can be applied for at here.

When calculating, make sure that we really have listed all expenses and income (e.g. additional funding from the Studentenwerk, the Friends of the University, donations, etc.).

In order to clarify questions, the Finance Department holds a consultation hour every Tuesday between 5:30 and 7:30 pm in the StuRa office. If possible, all applications should first be discussed with the department of finance. Please allow plenty of lead time, as some applications must first be approved by the committee. Feedback on the need for discussion or decision-making will be provided via the application portal.

Once the event or project has been completed, an accounting is required. It makes sense to use the table from the calculation for this. All receipts and invoices should be assigned to the respective items in the calculation and added up accordingly. The same applies to the income (e.g. the approval notice from the student union). For the calculation, all receipts, invoices and authorisation notices must be uploaded to the application portal.

Once the statement has been checked, the respective funds will be transferred to the bank account specified in the application.

A confirmation of funding is also available for download in the application portal for each funding application submitted if funding has been approved by the StuRa.

Popular and competitive sports

In addition to cultural events and projects, the StuRa also supports participation in university championships and other competitions.

Popular sports

In addition to competitive and amateur sports, the student body is also responsible for supporting popular sports. If events are planned (with or without a tournament character) that are intended to introduce students to new trend sports, for example, or simply represent a ball sports tournament, funds can also be applied for. The same requirements apply here as for the support of cultural events and projects.

Competitive sports

Bei der Unterstützung für den Leistungssport gelten ein paar andere Regeln, als bei kulturellen Veranstaltungen und Projekten oder dem Breitensport.

The StuRa primarily supports participation in competitions organised by the adh (Allgemeiner Deutscher Hochschulsportverband) or the LHS (Landeskonferenz Hochschulsport Sachsen) and their respective qualification competitions. Furthermore, participation in international competitions organised by the umbrella associations EUSA (European University Sports Association) and FISU (Fédération Interationale du Sport Universitaire) can also be funded.

It is important for funding from the StuRa that participation in the relevant competitions has nothing to do with teaching. No one may receive credit points for their studies as part of this competition.

If you would like to be supported to take part in a competition, we need the following documents from you:

  • a calculation with all planned expenses and income for this event

Corresponding templates are available at Downloads. The support can be applied for at here.

When calculating, make sure that we really have listed all expenses and income. This includes the registration fees, even if these are either paid directly or reimbursed by University Sport.

Attention: the StuRa has determined that a personal contribution of 10%, but at least 10 euros, must be included per day to support participation in corresponding competitions. For competitions with overnight stays, the personal contribution increases to 15% or at least 15 euros.
