The Chemnitz-Zwickau Student Services Organisation provides financial and organisational support to student societies and clubs. We also support sports and cultural groups, as well as one-off cultural or sporting events.
All student associations and clubs active at Chemnitz University of Technology, University of Applied Sciences in Zwickau, Plauen Cooperative State University, Breitenbrunn Cooperative State University, and Glauchau Cooperative State University are eligible to apply for cultural funding.
To apply, we require the completed application form, a brief project description, and a financial plan.
To assist you with the application process, the Cultural Commission has drawn up guidelines. Please read these carefully and pay particular attention to the deadlines listed.
The full set of application documents can be submitted at the Studentenwerk information desk.
