International Coffee Hour

Join us for the International Coffee Hour, a welcoming event designed to bring together students from diverse backgrounds and cultures. Enjoy a warm cup of coffee and delicious pastries while connecting with fellow students, sharing experiences, and exchanging ideas.

This event takes place every 2 to 3 weeks during the semester, with each session featuring a unique theme—so no two events are the same! The only constant? Great coffee and great conversations.

Buddy Program

The Buddy Program, organised by the Welcome Team, connects exchange students with experienced students to help them settle into life at the university and in a new country. Buddies offer guidance, answer questions, and provide support to make the transition smoother.

Beyond one-on-one connections, the program also organizes events and meet-ups, creating opportunities to socialize, explore the city, and build friendships across cultures.

Whether you're a new exchange student looking for support or a local student eager to connect, the Buddy Program is a great way to make the most of your international experience!

The events are funded by the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst e.V.), under the Lokale Erasmus+ Initiative Program (Gefördert vom Bundesministerium für für Bildung und Forschung (BMBF)).
