Student Council
Get to know our Student Council
The Student Council is the bridge between the student body and the university's faculty and administration. We serve as the elected representatives that ensure your voices are heard, your ideas valued, and your concerns addressed.
We are committed to improving student life. Our work is primarily distributed between supporting Frankfurt School’s initiatives, organizing memorable events, and representing the student body to FS management.
Our priorities begin and end with your feedback. Every semester there is a minimum of one General Student Assembly (GSA), with an opportunity for an open dialogue between Frankfurt School management, the Student Council, and the student body.
