To get started at our university, we strongly recommend taking part in activities for students starting their studies at the University of Passau.
In order to ensure an optimal start to your studies at the University of Passau and a smooth transition from school or your former place of study, the student council organizes orientation week(s) for first-year-students.
More information on this topic is available on the website "FIM orientation weeks for first-year students".
The FIM orientation weeks also include some social events organized by the FSinfo, the faculty's student committee.
Master's students are welcome to attend the social events organised by the FSinfo. In addition, the Dean's office holds a welcome meeting on Mondays of the first lecture week, usually followed by a Q&A session with student volunteers.
To familiarize yourself with our faculty's IT services (which are not to be confused with the services provided by the ZIM), please take a look at the website of the FIM IT support.
International Master's students are strongly advised to take part in the international orientation weeks offered by the International Office.
Our international coordinator and his team also offer events specific to our faculty. German/Austrian nationals are also welcome to attend, but the information events are mostly an introduction to the workings of a German university and life in Passau/Germany in general.
