Starting Wednesday, June 3, 2026, Maike Schröder – an experienced translator at KIT – will host an open discussion round for anyone who already has basic knowledge of German but finds too few opportunities to speak. 
The concept is simple: no rules, no fees, no stress. In a relaxed atmosphere, participants can converse with each other in German and receive support if needed. 
Date: Every Wednesday (from June 3, 2026), 5:00–6:00 PM
All interested parties – regardless of language level – are warmly welcome.
Just come by and join in!

A stay abroad during your studies offers many opportunities and at the same time the decision brings many uncertainties and questions. In this interactive workshop of the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, you reflect on your personal goals, expectations, and possible fears regarding the topic of studying abroad.
Through group work, exchange, and systemic reflection methods, you develop more clarity about whether a stay abroad is currently the right step for you personally, independent of the expectations of others.
The workshop is especially aimed at bachelor students with little or no international experience.
Register now by June 10th.
Limited spots.
