The AStA (Allgemeiner Studierendenausschuss / general students’ committee) represents the students of the university and is therefore something like the student “government.” Representatives are elected by the student parliament. The group consists of one chairman as well as consultants for different areas of responsibility like culture, athletics and social affairs.
Besides representing the students of TU Dortmund the AStA offers a series of service features like, for example, legal and social counseling, housing and job agencies as well as cheap copy facilities. The negotiations about the semester ticket are also part of the AStA’s responsibilities.
