Orientation Week
Note on photographs
Photographs will be taken at the InfoMarket and during the opening ceremony, which we would like to use for reporting purposes (press releases, university website, LinkedIn, Instagram), for documentation and information purposes and to promote the InfoMarket and the opening ceremony in the coming year. These recordings are linked to the pictorial representation of persons present, whereby the selection of persons is partly random. If you do not wish to be photographed, please inform the photographer accordingly.
Furthermore, if you do not agree with a specific publication that has already taken place, please notify us immediately with a precise reference to the image in question. In this case, the photo will be removed within a reasonable period of time and no longer published.
Orientation Week
Welcome to your studies at the University of Oldenburg!
Missed orientation week?
You were unable to attend the orientation week for first-semester students, which took place from 7-11 October? Please use the following information to help you find your way around:
- the orientation week programme is still online until the end of November. You will find helpful presentations, videos or websites, e.g. with information on the course of study and important contact persons, under the announcements of some subject presentations and interdisciplinary events
- on the Study entry for first semester website, you will find thematically organised sections with information on starting your studies, such as timetabling, orientation on campus or life and leisure on campus.
- still have questions? Arrange an individual counselling appointment with the student counsellors: [email protected] , subject: Missed orientation week
- for subject-specific questions about your degree programme or individual modules, please contact the academic counsellors and/ or contact the student representatives for your subject (see programme student councils)
Programme offers for individual selection
Programme and subject presentations
Find out when your degree programme/subjects present themselves in order to find out all the important information about the course of study.
Interdisciplinary events
In addition to the information on your degree programme/subjects, other basic information is important for a successful course of study.
Under the heading ‘Interdisciplinary events’, you will therefore find numerous programmes that provide you with important information. Some of these courses are relevant for the entire degree programme and therefore for all students, such as the introduction to the organisational platform ‘Stud.IP’, which you use to organise your studies.
Other events only affect individual target groups, such as the event on BAföG or studying with family responsibilities.
Research which interdisciplinary courses are relevant for you.
Found a flat and now have to register/re-register your place of residence?
Here you will find information on registering your place of residence with the City of Oldenburg.
Please note that for most matters in the citizens' offices, an appointment must be made in advance.
The Oldenburg Citizens' Office also offers online services. The re-registration of your place of residence and the application for welcome money are just two examples that can be done quickly and conveniently from home.
