Start of studies at RWU

Herzlich willkommen an der RWU!

Der Studienstart markiert den Beginn eines neuen, spannenden Lebensabschnitts. Die ersten Tage sind aufregend und voller neuer Erfahrungen und Eindrücke, aber auch voller Fragezeichen. Wie geht es jetzt weiter? Was werden die ersten Studientage bringen? Wann wird was erklärt und an wen kann ich mich wenden?

Damit Sie sich an der RWU schnell zurechtfinden und gut vorbereitet ins erste Semester starten können, bieten wir vor Vorlesungsbeginn eine zentrale Einführungsveranstaltung für alle Erstsemester an. Hier werden Sie offiziell begrüßt, lernen wichtige Ansprechpersonen kennen und erhalten wertvolle Informationen zum Studienablauf. Zusätzlich gibt es Pflichtveranstaltungen Ihres Studiengangs, Führungen durch zentrale Einrichtungen wie das DidaktikZentrum sowie Einblicke in unsere Hochschulgruppen und Initiativen, bei denen Sie sich vernetzen können.

Das detaillierte Programm zur Erstsemestereinführung wird vor Semesterstart aktualisiert und im zweiten Reiter dieser Seite veröffentlicht.

Wir freuen uns darauf, Sie bald persönlich bei uns an der RWU begrüßen zu dürfen und wünschen Ihnen einen gelungenen Start ins Studium!

Compulsory events and presentation of institutions and initiatives

Wednesday, March 19

On Wednesday, March 19 , the Day of Initiatives and Institutions will take place. On this day, student initiatives and institutions at RWU, such as the Central Student Advisory Service, the Formula Student Team or the Studierendenwerk Seezeit, will present themselves in the foyer of the main building from 11:30 a.m. to 02:00 p.m..

RWU thrives on student participation. A large number of student initiatives have therefore been set up to help shape the university. Through their involvement, students have better career opportunities and the chance to think outside the box. Studies by the state of Baden-Württemberg also show that students who are involved at university are more likely to successfully complete their studies.

Some important compulsory events will also take place on this day from 8:00 a.m.:

The introduction to examinations by Prof. Dr. Mauser.
The lecture on occupational health and safety and fire safety at the university by Mr. Ries.

Guided tours of the Didactics Center and the library

Guided tours of the Didactics Center take place alongside the compulsory courses. This is located in Building K. Here you can get an insight into the learning café, try out VR and test our green screen in the film studio. You will also find out about support services for starting your studies.

In addition to the tours of the Didactics Center, there are also tours of the university library.

You can find your dates for the compulsory events and a complete program overview in the program at the bottom of the page in the section "Information about starting your studies at RWU".
