International Students Team

Experience shows that the first days in a new city and a new environment are the hardest. Situations like doing the first grocery shopping or trying to find a lecture hall quickly become pretty exhausting. Since most of the members of the International Students Team know that from own experience, they decided to support foreign students during their stay in Wuppertal.

Sometimes it is very hard to get information about studying abroad. Quite a lot of students made countless phone calls, talked to many different people and yet didn’t really know what to expect. If you have trouble getting information about studying in Wuppertal, you are welcome to contact the International Students Team and they will try to help you. To make your arrival in Wuppertal easier, they offer to pick you up at the main station, show you the student dormitories and your room. Also they can accompany you when you have to sign the lease, register and sign up at the University.

The Welcome Week takes place every semester. You can take part in guided tours through the university and Wuppertal, join IST when they go bowling and they will show you some pubs afterwards. They will organize some parties and excursions, too. IST will be the contact persons for you during your whole stay in Wuppertal. If you have any problems don’t hesitate to contact IST, they are always happy to help you.
