Student Initiatives at the University of Göttingen

If you want to get involved, meet new people and broaden your horizons while studying, you can choose from a wide range of options. For example, there are groups and initiatives from the areas of "Human Rights & Development Cooperation", "Culture", "Networking, Exchange & Internships" and, of course, from the area of "Business & Stock Exchange":

• Akademischer Börsenverein Göttingen (ABVG)


• Bundesverband Deutscher Volks- und Betriebswirte e.V. (bdvb)


• Consulting Team


• Enactus Universität Göttingen


• Kritische Wirtschaftswissenschaften Göttingen


• Exceed

All student groups and initiatives usually organise introductory events for (potential) new members at the beginning of each semester. You can get an overview of the numerous student groups, initiatives and associations of the General Student Committee (AStA) via the directory of all university groups. Find the matching group for you!

The WiWi-O-Phase e.V.

You probably still remember your orientation week (mainly for german speaking students) at the faculty? The students who accompanied you at your start into your studies were members of the club “WiWi-O-Phase e.V.”
They organise welcome events for our first-year students every semester - and last but not least, of course, the big ZHG party at the end of every orientation week. New tutors are always needed!

If you are interested, you can find more information about the “WiWi-O-Phase” on their website (in German): https://wiwi-o-phase.de.
