Welcome to TU Braunschweig!
We, the student council for mechanical engineering, would like to welcome you to Technische
Universität Carolo-Wilhelmina zu Braunschweig. We are delighted that you have chosen one
of our master degree programmes at the faculty of Mechanical Engineering.
We have organised a series of introductory events for first-semester students to simplify and
sweeten the start of your studies. These take place in calendar week 41 (October 7th to
October 11th, 2024), one week before the regular start of your lectures.
The first information event on the orientation phase will take place on October 7th at 8:45 a.m.
in the AudiMax.
The orientation week (OE - Orientierungseinheit) will begin immediately after the event. You
will be divided into tutor groups with other students from your degree programme. You will get
to know the university and the city in these tutor groups. We have planned several events -
you will find out exactly what they are at the beginning of the OE. Just one thing beforehand,
after the first information session we will be doing many activities outside, so leave your high
heels and blazer at home and dress according to the weather conditions.
We recommend that you organize a place to sleep in Braunschweig or the surrounding area
for the orientation week as there will be some evening events.
Please do not hesitate to contact us by email if you have further questions.
We wish you a successful start to your studies!
Your Student Council for Mechanical Engineers
