Students of the SDAC Master’s program are highly involved in the day-to-day of the program’s organization. For example, each cohort chooses representatives to engage with SDAC staff and bring forth questions and concerns. Students also are in contact across cohorts, through Social Media and shared events.
Student Representatives
Student representatives (Reps) are elected from each cohort and represent students’ interests and voices at SDAC. The primary role of a student rep is to effectively listen and collect the views and opinions of all students they represent and to actively communicate them to staff.
Student reps are expected to be aware of their peers’ concerns and communicate them effectively to staff.
Student reps should regularly attend the committee meetings during the semester and share issues, suggestions, and proposals raised by students. The program coordinator will inform student reps about the meetings and other events that they should participate in.
Student reps should also help coordinate and organize annual events, such as field trips, celebratory events (welcoming party and Christmas party), etc.
Student reps should maintain confidentiality and adhere to data protection of any shared information.

Student Activities
Each year in October, SDAC will organize a one-week-long orientation for new students. During this week, they will meet each other, our faculty members, and students from previous cohorts.
Hi there! Would you like to know more about studying at FAU and living in the Erlangen-Nürnberg area? Take a peek at these vlogs filmed by Ani, our student from the second cohort. She will also offer you some tips on finding accommodation, financing your studies, etc.
