Survey regarding the working conditions of student assistants for the TVStud negotiations

Survey regarding the working conditions of student assistants for the TVStud negotiations

Students working at the university in addition to their studies currently do not have a collective agreement, which means temporary employment and minimum wage at many German universities. After a campaign was launched by the unions ver.di and GEW at the beginning of 2021, talks on a collective agreement for student assistants such as HiWis, tutors and other student employees were promised towards the end of 2021 by the collective bargaining round of the federal states.

Santa Claus has been on the road for several weeks now. He has already experienced a lot on his trip so far and thanks to your help he was able to open his wheat beer, the hiding place of the witch Asciira and the magical gate to her cave. There he finally finds what he has been looking for for the past two weeks, the gifts that the witch stole from him from the sled.

Rätseladventskalender - The Multi-Lock

After Santa successfully uttered the solution word, to Santa’s great surprise, not the stolen gifts flew out of the painting, but a map and 5 golden keys and 3 silver keys. The map apparently leads directly to the magic castle of the evil witch Asciira. Santa Claus had no choice but to follow the map, hoping to find the presents. His journey took him through the darkest jungles of the rainforest, the densest crowds of the Munich subway and the coldest tundras in the world.

Nevertheless, we were able to welcome four speakers, whom we would like to thank for their presentation:

The Computer Science Student Council congratulates Dr. Stephan Krusche on the Ars legendi award for excellent university teaching

We would like to congratulate Dr. Stephan Krusche on the Ars legendi Prize for excellent university teaching! The prize is awarded every three years since 2011 by the umbrella organisation of the Faculty Days of Engineering and Computer Science (4ING) and is endowed with 25,000 euros. It is intended to highlight the special significance of university teaching for the education of young engineers and computer scientists and to create a career-effective incentive to become involved in university teaching and to promote it beyond one’s own sphere of influence.

impulsiv 138 out now

Even a global pandemic won’t stop us from publishing the Impulsiv, the magazine of our Student Council. Alas, considering the circumstances, this and (probably) next semester’s issues will be published exclusively online. Despite being the obvious choice, the Corona crisis was explicitly not selected as the main topic of this issue. Although it is by no means a boring subject, we think that we’ve all had enough of it by now.

Digital Examinations

Digital Examinations

The ‘digital semester’ has started and already had some changes for us concerning digital teaching. So it will probably come as no surprise to anyone that examinations will also have a ‘digital makeover’, as it is still not clear whether attendance examinations can take place or not. For this reason, last Wednesday, May 13th, the Senate passed an amendment to the General Examination and Study Regulations (APSO) which allows among other things “electronic distance examinations” for the next 2 semesters.

Digitalization has finally reached the faculty. About a month after we successfully moved all of our internal meetings to BigBlueButton, today we held the student assembly informatics online for the first time. Apart from a few audio issues, most of it worked out as planned. In total around 370 people followed the event via YouTube and another 520 people watched via PanOpto. The YouTube view count has since risen to more than 700 views as well.

FSMPI goes Digital - Student Council Work continues during Coronacrisis

In the current situation - I can no longer hear this opening - things are somehow different. TUM is in lockdown, exams are cancelled, home office for the staff and corona holidays for the students. But don’t think that your student council is sitting around twiddling their thumbs all day long. Our work goes on! We are in constant contact with the university regarding the summer semester. Presence teaching will probably not be possible for the time being, so we want to support the transition to a digital semester as much as possible.

Because of the current situation, the student council made the decision that our offices in the MI building and in the physics department will remain closed until further notice. This also means that our renting services, the coffee machine and the scripts sale office will be unavailable for now. We as the student council are of course not the only ones taking action. As you probably already heard, lectures and exams are cancelled until the 19th of April.

Lectures in a tent

Lectures in a tent

Interim lecture halls seem to be in fashion in Garching. While by definition these facilities were only meant to be used on an interim basis, we now have two permanently on campus. In the coming summer semester, we will have a revolutionary continuation: tents in front of the MW building (mechanical engineering). The two giant auditoriums just to the left when entering the MW building are being renovated for fire protection and therefore the students will move into the tents on the 20th of April 2020.
