Overview:

Studying at a German university presents a number of cultural challenges, for instance in the way that the academic system is organized. In order to make your studies in Germany as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, the first workshop is dedicated to German university culture. We also discuss what types of classes are most common at German universities and clarify the meaning of important terms for everyday life at university.

The second part of the workshop focuses on the subject of exams in a university context. The focus here is on oral exams in particular. You will learn common procedures and types of questions as well as strategies for preparation, follow-up, and behavior during oral exams.
