Studying is a challenge for everyone – but refugees and other students who come to our university from abroad face additional hurdles: Studying successfully, Managing Student Life abroad and Career Entry.
As part of the DAAD-FIT programme, which is funded by the German Academic Exchange Service, we establish contacts with student councils, tutors and other students, offer advice on questions about organising your life and studies and your prospects of staying in Germany, offer coaching and help with finding internships and jobs. We take all the concerns of international students seriously - talk to us!
There are also a variety of events, games, an international Christmas party and a pub quiz throughout the academic year. Become part of the international community at Flensburg University of Applied Sciences!
