The Student Council is the highest body of student self-government. It consists of 15 honorary members who are elected directly by the students every year. The core task of the StuRas is to represent the interests and concerns of the students in the university and society and to support them as far as possible in cultural, professional, economic and social matters. This includes, among other things:

• Formation of units for various activities
• Sending students to the commissions of the senate
• Granting social loans to students
• Promotion of student projects and organizations
• Taking a stand and exerting influence on university policy developments
• Organizing events e.g. seminars
• Promoting student sports
• Promoting the integration of foreign students
• Cultivate supra-regional student relations
