Once all these barriers have been overcome your studies will begin in the first week of lectures on October 16th, 2023.
During the first week of lectures, the orientation and introduction week (OE) will take place, during which you will be provided with all the important information you need to start your studies.
Additionally, there is the central first semester welcome in our Audimax (S1|01 - A1) on 11.10.2023 starting at 17:00.
Due to the special circumstances this year and last year, TU Darmstadt has launched the website einfachsTUdieren. Here you can find a lot of important information and videos about the start of your studies.
We will provide you with the timetable for this first week in time on top of this page.
It starts with a welcome of a representative of the university management and of professors from the Department of Mechanical Engineering, as well as by the MechCenter and the students council.
Afterwards you will be divided into small groups. In your group, two students from a higher semester year will give you a lot of important information about your further studies, such as the timetable, examination modalities, information about Darmstadt, housing, references on books, scripts, etc. You will also meet many fellow students. Experience has shown that many of these acquaintances remain with you throughout your studies as study groups, friendships and contacts.
