The orientation days for first semester international bachelor and state examination students will take place on March 23rd until 24th, 2023.

If you have any questions about your individual study programs, please contact your department directly. For current information on campus, please click here.

 


This is what the orientation programs offer:

  • A first introduction to learning and working at the Goethe University?

  • Finding your way around the university, both regarding location and content (“Where is lecture hall V? What exactly happens in a lecture?“).

  • First steps to structure your studies and know what is expected from you (“What do examination regulations say? How do I organise my undergraduate studies?“).

  • An overview of subject-specific introduction sessions and counselling services (“When is the introduction session for sociology and what I can learn in Professor X’s office hours?“).

  • Contact with students who are in the same situation (“Shall we go to this seminar together?“) and to services helping international students (“Who is in charge of what?“).
