We understand that it can be a real challenge to settle into your studies, build a social network, and prepare for your career in a new country – all at the same time.
That’s why we created the iStudi-Pass – our special programme for international degree-seeking students at the University of Passau.
The iStudi Pass is a modular programme that accompanies you throughout your studies and specifically prepares you for life and work in Germany.
Each semester, in cooperation with the Centre for Careers and Competencies (ZKK), we put together a selection of suitable offers from the University of Passau, including:
At the end of the programme, you’ll receive your personal iStudi-Pass – a valuable certificate of your additional qualifications that you can include in job applications and your CV.
You can find all the information and details on how to register here:

Important notice: At the moment, we are not offering individual application coaching or CV checks. We will inform you as soon as these services are available again.
Besides the advice of the iStudi Coach and the specific offers by the University of Passau, the following links provide information for international students regarding the topic of living and working in Germany after graduation.
