Learn Professional Networking from Experts
Who would be better suited to explain the German job market to you and to open the door to your first professional networks than mentors who have already started their careers? In our mentoring program, international students are accompanied by working graduates (mainly from Goethe University) for one semester. Our mentors provide insights into their respective fields of work, pass on their experiences and offer help with professional orientation.
Our mentoring program begins at the start of each semester. The application prozess for the summer semester 2021 will start in April.
