Abstract

In this note we investigate the simplicial volume of fiber bundles with connected structure group. We are able to show that if the structure group is either compact or a Lie group, or if the fiber is aspherical that the simplicial volume of the total space agrees with the simplicial volume of the trivial bundle.
