Information on individual educational components (ECTS-Course descriptions) per semester

Before registering for participation in the Austrian National Union of Students (ÖH), it is necessary to clarify directly with the ÖH team which task or function will be assumed for the ÖH during the semester. 

The Austrian National Union of Students represents the students and their interests. The ÖH of the FHV has departments for culture, politics, economics and much more. If you would like to get involved in this interest group in your 2^nd and/or 3^rd semester, you can have 6 ECTS per semester credited to your Contextual Studies. As some degree programmes also offer other credit transfer options, we also offer 3 ECTS credits for this course as an elective. This course will only be recognised if there is visible cooperation (function on the ÖH website).
