Welcome and Integration Team (W&I)

The Welcome and Integration Team supports prospective and current international students, no matter whether they fled their country or not, with information on studies and integration offerings. We have excellent contacts and can provide help in difficult situations. We advocate a culture of diversity.

We are available every week from Tuesday to Thursday from 11 am to 1 pm in the International Student Hub, where peer-to-peer counseling also takes place.
