As in every year, the student council organizes an orientation session designed to help you find your way around your studies in Cologne. The orientation session will take place from October 4 to 6, 2023. Participation is voluntary, but is recommended as it has been shown to make orientation at the start of your studies easier. At present, it is not yet final whether the events will take place in person or online. Further information can be found here.
