Dear students of the upcoming first semester,

a warm welcome to you!

For most of you, this will be your first contact with a university and you will have many questions about the course of studies and the organization of your studies. Don't panic, most of your questions will be answered during the preparation week.

The lecture period begins on Monday, 16.10.2023. However, you should also urgently attend the department's preparation days for the two degree programs Veterinary Medicine and Equine Science from 11.10. to 13.10.
