General Student Committee
The AStA is the body of the student body in which students continuously strive to improve the general conditions of study and promote exchange between the university and society. Their personal commitment and drive make a significant contribution to student life at the university.
Next to the student parliament (StuPa), the AStA is the most important organ of student self-administration at our university. It is divided into different departments, which are organized by area of responsibility. The speakers of the AStA are elected by the StuPa.
Wir tagen regelmäßig in hochschulöffentlichen Sitzungen, die rechtzeitig per E-Mail bekannt gegeben werden. Alle Studierenden sind herzlich eingeladen, an diesen Sitzungen teilzunehmen. Unsere Sitzungen finden i.d.R. als Hybridveranstaltungen statt.
Board of Directors
Our executive board manages the affairs of the student body and represents it in internal and external university committees.

In the International Affairs Department, we concentrate on ensuring that our university remains true to the name "European University": Specifically, we understand this to mean contributing to or organising projects with an international theme so that international activities are further promoted at our university. Other initiatives include offering projects and content for international students, e.g. to make it easier for them to integrate and make contact with local students and, if necessary, to provide assistance with any problems that may arise.
Current projects:
eMerge: One of our current tasks is the coordination of the "eMERGE" project (on the student side with the other student representatives of all partner universities), the aim of which is to network different European universities with each other, both in the area of research teaching and to stimulate a cultural exchange between students. For this purpose, we take part in the regular meetings of the eMERGE student forum (ESF). Further information on the universities participating in the project can be found under the following Link .
Model United Nations (MUN): Model United Nations is a simulation of a UN conference in which all participants take on the role of a country delegation to debate an issue of international relevance and find a solution. Our plan is to set up a MUN club together with the Department of Political Education and the media team of the International Office, which will meet regularly throughout the semester to debate in MUN style.
Podcast: Produce a language podcast with international and local students of different levels in the appropriate language, talking about simple and entertaining everyday topics to improve listening comprehension and speaking languages.
About us & contact:
We are Alexandra Osintseva, Annick Poirot and Hugo Mercier.

We deal with ecological issues around the university, its campus, the city of Flensburg and at the same time address global issues of environmental and climate protection. In the past, the department has organised several events around the topics of environmental protection and sustainability. Among other things, the department was jointly responsible for the successful implementation of the "FairCup" deposit cup system. At the moment, we are working on the "Garden of Science" project together with the climate protection manager of the EUF and some other university staff.
