1. elections in summer semester 2024
In the summer semester, elections are traditionally held for the StuRa, for many Fachschaftsräten (FSR) – especially for the “Feld-Fachschaften”, for the Fakultätsräten and for the Senat der Universität.

Throughout the semester, there are calls for candidates for central offices in the Verfassten Studierendenschaft (VS). The elections take place in the StuRa, the candidacy for the elections held in the StuRa takes place via an online form. The candidatures are presented in a meeting in the StuRa, the candidates are interviewed there by the StuRa members (1st reading). The election takes place in another meeting (usually the following meeting: 2nd reading).

5. termination of office, resignation and certificates of engagement
If you are a member of a VS committee and realize that the work is becoming too much, you can resign from your position. Anyone who is no longer enrolled at Heidelberg University can no longer be a member of a VS committee. If you change subject, you can no longer be a member of the relevant Fachrat or Fachschaftsrat or be delegated to the StuRa on behalf of the Fachschaft. However, you can remain a financial officer (Finanzverantwortliche*r) or member of an electoral committee (Wahlraumausschuss). If someone finishes their studies or changes subject, we ask you to inform us of this or the person concerned should inform us of the end of their term of office via the withdrawal form (indicate exmatriculation or change of subject in the comments field).
You can have a certificate of commitment issued for your involvement in the VS and its committees – you can apply for it using the online form.
The WaKo (election committee) is looking forward to many candidacies and thanks for the early notification of resignations
