The orientation weeks for international students take place at the University of Passau before the beginning of each semester. The orientation weeks will help you to prepare for your studies but also – and perhaps even more importantly! – provide great opportunities to get to know Passau and your fellow students. Events happen partly online, partly on campus to get everyone on board, whether you are already in Germany or still waiting for your trip.
The orientation weeks for the winter semester 2026/27 will take place from 28 September to 11 October 2026. Please register here.
To help you prepare for your arrival, you will find documents under Downloads on key topics such as accommodation, administrative matters, integration, career, and study organization in English.
If you have any questions that are not answered on the websites below,, feel free to mail to exchangestudents@uni-passau.de or istudicoach@uni-passau.de (as a degree-seeking student).
Links & events are only active one hour before the start. You can find the full online event schedule on this website.
Please note that the data from the calender of events as well as the AEGEE events may be subject to short-term changes. You can check whether your document is still up to date by looking at the "as of" date of the document (e.g., event calendar in the top right corner).
