Please note: The Welcome Week is for international students who are studying full-time (degree seekers), carrying out a stay abroad (exchange students), or spending a self-organized stay for one or two semesters (free movers) at the University of Hohenheim. The language for all events is English.

For each Master's degree program, there is a separate welcome and introduction event – either in advance or during the lecture period.
