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 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.

The events are funded by the DAAD (Deutscher Akademischer Austauschdienst e.V.) under the Stipendien- & Beutreuungsprogramm (STIBET).


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)).
