Start of Studies
Freshers' Week from 09 October - 14 October 2023
You’re a fresher – and now what? During the Freshers' Week you will learn how to organise your studies, create your timetable and register for courses. It provides all the information you require for a successful start to your studies in Greifswald. There is no fee for taking part in the Freshers' Week, so make use of this offer.
The Freshers' Week always takes place in the week before lectures begin. The programme for the freshers' week will be published on this page in the weeks beforehand.
