Something for everyone

Whether you are interested in politics, have a talent for singing, are socially committed or are a handyman and tinkerer – there is definitely room for you in one of our student initiatives.
Student initiatives are recognized and financially supported by the student council.

Arbeiterkind.de

The Coburg chapter of ArbeiterKind.de supports young adults from non-academic families on their way to and through university.
All those who take part in ArbeiterKind.de are or were the first in their family to go to university.
They come from different disciplines and pass on their experiences.
They provide advice on all aspects of starting a career and doing a doctorate.
The nationwide initiative ArbeiterKind.de was founded in 2008.
The aim is to encourage interested teenagers and young adults from non-academic families to take up university studies and to support them on their way through their studies.
More than 5000 mentors in over 70 locations are now involved on a voluntary basis.
The idea is supported by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research and the Vodafone Foundation Germany, among others. Official regulars’ table: Every first Thursday of the month from 6 to 7 p.m. in the Sonderbar, Unterer Bürglaß 10.
