Representation
Your strong student representation
The Students' Union at the University for Continuing Education Krems (ÖH-UWK) is a public corporation and thus the legal representation of the interests of all students at the UWK. Every student is a compulsory member of the ÖH. The ÖH fee for the current academic year 2024/25 is EUR 24.70 per student. Without the payment of the ÖH fee, no admission/continuation registration may be made by the university. The ÖH fee is included in the course fee at the UWK and therefore does not have to be paid separately. You can check whether your ÖH fee has been paid in the UWKonline under the tab ‘Study status and continuing education programme fee’.
As a student interest group, the ÖH has the right to review the drafting of laws. This results in a right of co-determination and the opportunity to influence all provisions relating to studies. In addition, the ÖH delegates student representatives to various university and college committees, ministerial commissions and other institutions.
Each university in turn has its own university or university of applied sciences representation, which serves as an interface to the ÖH federal representation.
