We help international students with organizational matters, foster
contacts between international and German students and offer leisure
time activities in and around Tübingen. Thus we want to help you to have
a great experience in Tübingen! Counseling
During our office hours once a week we can assist you
with any problems you may
have. Especially in the beginning, you may need help with things
such
as matriculation, organization of your studies, getting your
resident's
permit, opening a bank account, finding health insurance, etc. Even if we cannot answer one of your questions directly, we will definitely be able to find the right contact person for you. If you don't have time to pass by in person (or if you're still in your home country) you can also just write an email to studit@uni-tuebingen.de. The team
The idea behind the mentor program is that each international student, who is interested, is assigned a German mentor. The mentors are volunteers who are students at the University of Tübingen themselves. They are personal counselors who may help you with questions you may have in the beginning and with adjusting to your new environment. The mentor will try to show you what German culture and student life in Tübingen are like: you can go to parties together, on trips, to the movies or the theatre, cook together, do sports, etc. HOWEVER: Neither international students nor mentors enter an obligatory relationship. This is NOT a live-in program! The point is rather to spend some time together, get to know different cultures, and to broaden one’s horizon, so that both profit from it.
If you would like to take part in our mentor program, please fill out
our
online
registration form. Activities Throughout the semester, StudIT offers a variety of activities to all
students, for instance day or weekend trips, a pub crawl through the old
city center, visits to museums, a monthly regulars' table etc. You will
quickly meet many other international and German students.
