For the degree programmes, preliminary courses are offered during the orientation and introductory period. These prepare students for the requirements of the degree programme and help to refresh or consolidate existing knowledge. We recommend that all first-year students take part to make it easier for them to start their studies.
Please check this page regularly for the latest information, changes and the respective course dates.
