Student Council of Medical Informatics

The Student Council is group of Students that represent collegiate interests. We work together tightly with the heads of the course and of the faculty to address and solve current issues. Of course we do have a party every once in a while as well.

I was spokesman for the council from October 2007 to October 2009. Together with a second spokesman, we formed the head of the council. I was elected into this position in November 2007, reelected in 2008, and have chosen not to run for office a third time as I will not be able to sufficiently fill this role while working on my bachelor thesis.

When I was elected into the Council, there was not much activity to speak of. Together with Florian Dittmann, a good friend of mine and later Spokesman as well, we rebuilt the Council to a representive power and are proud to announce an activity peak as of late. Notable achievements in my term include:

• The rebuilding of the council.
• Creation of a central homepage for Council activities. View it here (Page is in German)
• Organising a Forum for students and alumni of Medical Informatics that is held each Semester and where Students can make connections and look for chances to get incolved in projects.
• Representing the course at various education fairs.
• Organising a "Script Sale" that allowed students to print course material cheaply in the University's internal printing press. As of 2009, The "Script Sale" is now paid for by the University itself.
