Every student council of the university is allowed to send representatives to the committees of the institutes, departments and the entire university. These representatives ensure that the interests of the students are heard and implemented in the committees. Furthermore, it is important to have students in the committeesto make sure that changes in the regulations of examination are in favor of the students. We therefore take care of a study program that does not disadvantage anyone.

The student representatives of the committees often belong to their student council. Representatives of the student council of physics are in the following committees (among others):

• Faculty council of the Faculty V / Fakultätsrat der Fakultät V (FakRat) (elected once a year)

• Study committee / Studiengremium (StuG)

• General assembly of the Representatives of the student councils / FachschaftenvertreterInnenvollversammlung (F3V)

• Faculty conference of the Faculty V / Fakultätskonverenz der Fakultät V (FakKonV)

• Study commission / Studienkommission (StuKo)

• Interdisciplinary study commission / Fachübergreifende Studienkommission (FüStuKo)
