Orientation week is over and we are delighted to welcome so many new students to the IDGS!
We took the time to introduce ourselves, the institute and the degree programs. The OU (orientation unit) tutors have put together a varied program in cooperation with the institute, so that in addition to the informative input, a relaxed immersion into the student world was also possible.

We are looking forward to an exciting winter semester 2024/25!
