the tu berlin's language policy
We supported the TVStud initiative in 2018
Between 2001 and 2018, the wages of student employees in Berlin’s tertiary education system stagnated. Beginning in 2016, they sought negotiations with the institutions and also struck for their demands. In summer 2018 the institutions gave in. The SKB supported the student employees’ initiative.
