General

The Student Parliament (StuPa) of the Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences is the highest body of the student body and consists of 33 representatives and ideally the same number of deputies, who are always elected at the end of the winter semester (usually January).

Among other things, it is responsible for the election and deselection of the General Student Committee (AStA) and the budget of the student body, as well as for the discussion and approval of (financial) proposals or the adoption of resolutions.

Meetings are usually held monthly during the lecture period and are open to the public.

The detailed tasks of the student parliament are described in the statutes of the student body.

The Presidium of the 54rd StuPa was elected at the first meeting on April 22, 2025.

It consists of

  • Sebastian Knupfer (H.A.I.)

Composition of the Student Parliament

The composition of the student parliament can change compared to the results in the election announcement if people resign or are elected to the AStA as a unit.

In the case of an election to a unit of the AStA, membership in the student parliament is suspended (§ 17 para. 3 of the statutes of the student body) and someone from the list moves up in the person's place.

Template for (financial) applications to the Student Parliament

Applications and financial requests to the Student Parliament must always be received by the Student Parliament Executive Committee one week and one day before the respective parliamentary session. They are then considered timely and will be processed. Applications/financial requests received after this deadline may be rejected by the Parliament.

A special note for external applicants: please contact the Finance Department of the h_da Student Union (AStA) well in advance to clarify what is and is not possible.

Student body budget

An approved budget forms the basis for the work of the Student Parliament, for example, for the approval of financial requests, but also for the work of the Student Councils and the Student Union (AStA).

The budget is usually drawn up by the Student Union (AStA) at the beginning of the winter semester and then discussed in the Student Parliament and, ideally, adopted without changes. Finally, the university's Executive Board must approve the budget.
