The TUM-BWL e.V.
The financial and legal affairs of the student council are handled by a non-profit association. This page details the association’s importance for conducting our work as a council. For all matters regarding project financing and large-scale purchases on behalf of the student council, the association board is the first point of contact. We are also happy to field external requests via our mail.
What is the association?
The TUM-BWL e.V. is a non-profit association tasked with representing the TUM SOM student council’s activities externally. It was established with the goal of supporting the TUM SOM student council and enriching student life by organizing lectures, parties, student counseling, meetings on university policies and more.
What is the relationship between the association and the student council TUM SOM?
The association is responsible for all financial affairs of the student council, including the financing of festivities, as well as billing for expenses incurred during first semester student weekends, printing of scripts and orientation weeks. The association exerts no operative influence in university affairs. The board of the association is in charge of all association finances, because the Bavarian University and College Act (BayHSchG) prohibits student councils from owning any financial resources. As a result, the association’s key responsibility consists of monitoring all student council projects from an organizational and financial perspective, thereby acting as a sort of supervisory committee.
Who can join the association?
Any committed student council member can become a member of the TUM-BWL e.V.. There are annual general meetings at which the board of directors is elected and the past term of office is reported. You can reach the current board of directors via mail.
