First-year student’s welcome event

Start of Studies: Welcome for first-year students

New life, new friends, new city: To ensure that first-year students quickly feel at home at FAUWiSo, there are not only a variety of introductory events, but also a very official welcome on October 17, 2022.

On this day, the schools head and the Lord Mayor of the City of Nuremberg, Marcus König, welcomed the first semester students. The welcome took place for the Bachelor students and Master students in German as well as in English.

After the welcome, the students went to the WiSo information fair. More than 30 facilities, institutions, initiatives and company partners of the department presented themselves at the fair. Many WiSo institutions, such as the Language Center and the University Library, the student representatives and various service and counseling centers presented themselves there. Student initiatives and company partners offered interesting information and insights. This year, too, new students could familiarize themselves with all the possibilities and receive information they need for a successful start to their studies.

In the afternoon, the inner courtyard of WiSo Nuremberg attracted students with a beer garden feeling including pretzels and drinks as well as guided tours of the city as part of the mentoring program. On this day, the popular WiSo first semester bags had also be handed out. In the evening, the student councils and initiatives invited the new students to a big get-to-know-you party in downtown Nuremberg.
