Anyone interested in studying but who still has lots of questions can find the answers at Paderborn University on Thursday 25 June. From 4 pm to 7 pm, the state-wide ‘Long Evening of Student Guidance’ will take place in Building Q for all prospective students. The event goes far beyond simply providing facts and is open to anyone planning to embark on academic life or looking to reorient their career path. Those who have already obtained their A-levels or entrance qualification for a university of applied sciences, or who will do so next year, are invited, as are those without A-levels who have a professional and vocational qualification or professional experience. No registration is required.
Prospective students can find out about the wide range of courses on offer, ask individual questions, and talk directly to current students on guided campus tours to learn first-hand about everyday student life and campus life. Paderborn University offers more than 70 study programmes as well as numerous options for combining subjects in teacher training. In addition to well-known study programmes such as Business Informatics, Sustainable Mechanical Engineering and Media Studies, those interested can also discover courses on offer – including, for example, Materials Science, European Studies, Popular Music and Media, as well as teacher training subjects such as Social Pedagogy, Islamic Religious Education, Psychology, and Technology.
“We want to offer visitors the opportunity to get to know the university with no obligation, get a taste of campus life and chat with people who study and conduct research here,” says Cinderella Welz from the Central Student Advisory Service (ZSB). In the foyer of the Q Building, alongside the ZSB advisers, staff from the Paderborn Studierendenwerk (student services association) will also be available for personal discussions. They will provide information on topics such as BAföG, student finance, and part-time jobs. In addition, the Service Centre for Students with Disabilities will be on site to advise on support options and measures to compensate for disadvantages in the case of disabilities or chronic illnesses. The programme is complemented by classes and information sessions on topics such as entry requirements, semesters abroad, student finance, and scholarships.
