Support for University Life at KIT

Booster Club of the Student Body of KIT

The Booster Club of the Student Body of Karlsruhe Institut of Technology e. V. supports student groups at KIT and promotes voluntary work in the student body. It is common that the volunteers in the different groups finance their projects out of their own pockets - or they spend a lot of time and work to find sponsors and supporters. This is where the support association comes into play. It collects money to support student involvement and works to ensure that student groups enjoy good conditions.
