Students’ Parliament

Every two years, the Student Parliament (StuPa) is democratically elected by the entire student body of the CBS International Business School. The StuPa has the task of representing the interests of the student body within the framework of the NRW Higher Education Act and is the managing body responsible for the external representation of the student body.

The objectives pursued by the StuPa are broadly diversified. In regular meetings with responsible persons from the faculty, administration and management of the CBS, the StuPa advocates the interests of the students. The StuPa takes up the students’ wishes and suggestions and works out solutions together with the CBS managers. A representative of the Student Parliament is also always present at appointment procedures, examination committees and Senate meetings.

In addition, the StuPa supports student initiatives in the implementation of projects and events and organises the annual CBS Oktoberfest and the popular semester closing party at the end of each semester. The StuPa projects are financed by a semester contribution from the students, which currently amounts to 10 €.
