Hamburg Welcome Weeks: An orientation programme for guest students and freshmen to get to know Hamburg and the other new students.
* In most departments the higher level classes will start in the first week of the semester; in some departments the first week of the semester may be an orientation week for the freshmen or first-semester students. Please check with your department.
** Mechanical Engineering: dates can vary - please check with your Student Exchange Coordinator, Hella Rieger
Public Holidays: On public holidays shops, banks and post offices are shut in Germany. There is increased traffic on roads, rail and at airports as Germans use these days for long weekends or short breaks.
Note for Bachelor students:
Some engineering programmes offer a pre-semester maths programme to introduce first-semester Bachelor students to the level of maths required for the programmes. You will get information about this with your letter of acceptance.
