For many students, working as a student employee is the best way to combine studying and working. It offers the opportunity to gain initial work experience while still studying and to earn money on the side. This work is an employment relationship like any other and the following applies: It needs a representation that takes up and represents the interests of the student employees.

Most German universities do not yet have their own staff council for student employees. The Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz, the Hochschulzugangsgesetz and the Vertrag über gute Beschäftigungsbedingungen für das Hochschulpersonal apply, which RWTH is obliged to fulfill.
