Pre Courses and Orientation Week

Starting in July, you will have access to the pre-course pages on LEA, where you can engage with the prepared materials. These resources are geared to help you gain the necessary competencies for the program. It is each student's responsibility to thoroughly review the course pages and attend the face-to face pre-courses in September.

If you did not study these subjects in your previous degree or if it has been a while since you last engaged with these topics, we strongly encourage you to complete the pre-courses prepared by our course supervisors. Please be advised that both courses will furnish you with a comprehensive array of materials, such as reading material, videos, exercises, and tests, all of which you are obligated to review prior to attending the face-to-face pre-courses on campus. It is of utmost importance that you comply with this requirement, as it is compulsory for all students to have thoroughly examined the pre-course content.

We understand that when international students arrive in Germany, there are many important tasks to complete, such as registering at relevant authorities, setting up a bank account, and furnishing your rooms. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to arrive in Germany in time before the start of the orientation and pre-courses.

The orientation has been scheduled to coincide with the pre-courses, allowing you to familiarize yourself with the university, program, and academic content simultaneously. Additionally, we have intentionally left a week between 16th and 20th September free for students to organize themselves before the official start of the program. This gap provides you with time to settle into your new environment so that when the academic program commences, your full attention can be dedicated to it. Please take some time to familiarize yourself with the proposed schedule provided below. The schedule will remain unchanged, but if there are any changes, please also refer to the calendar on your LEA page, as it will always contain the most updated information.
