At JKU, we are active for you in the student councils, faculty councils, university councils, student representatives and the senate chair! We provide services and counselling to help you in your everyday student life. We also act as your mouthpiece and represent your interests on university committees and in politics. Because one thing is clear: we care about you!

We want a JKU that is there for us students. As the VSStÖ, it is important to us that the university asks itself how we students benefit from every change. We students are the centre of this university and not just a mass-produced commodity that will roll off the assembly line in five years.

Above all, it is important to us that everyone who wants to can study and not just those who can afford it. Students should not be hindered in their studies by difficulties in credit transfer or lengthy prerequisite chains.

We also want a JKU that is modern and dynamic. Whether in teaching, research or campus development. The beautification of the campus is already a step in the right direction. But there are still more construction sites. It is not just the construction of new buildings that is needed, but rather the expansion of modern teaching, learning spaces that are always accessible, alternative solutions for construction sites, public transport that is free and reasonable for all students and, on the whole, we finally need subsidies that make studying possible!
