Get-togethers for students with children

Once a semester, there is a virtual meeting for students with children, where information about new regulations is provided, questions are answered and experiences are exchanged. Representatives of the Family Services Office, the AStA and the social counseling service of the Studierendenwerk are also often present.

In addition, a brunch or coffee and cake for students with children is held once a semester in cooperation with the Studierendenwerk and Darmstadt University of Applied Sciences. In addition to food, drink and children's entertainment, there are also counseling services.

The exact dates are published under “News” or you can register for the Moodle course “Studying with children” to receive invitations.
