The event will take place from the 19.10 to the 23.10.2026.
This is the current plan:

An explanation of the events will follow.

• Whats the Orientation Week? It’s a week intented for connecting with your fellow students and finding friends, organised by your student council. There are a few informational events, where you’ll learn important tipps for the first semester, and lots of chill events intented for pure fun.
• How can I find the rooms? Here’s an interactive site plan of the whole Göttingen campus: https://lageplan.uni-goettingen.de/
• Is it a problem if I can’t be there the whole time? Not at all! Just join again when you can. If you don’t know where to meet up, ask your fellow students or tutors.
• What’s Awareness? We want everyone to be comfortable and feel safe. We expect you to not harass, exclude, or pressure anyone. If you feel unsafe or unsure, our Awarness Team is there for you. You can either call the Awarness Phone or ask an Awarness Tutor (with the pink Shirts).
• Whats the deal with alcohol? At some of our events, we will offer alcohol (mostly beer), at others there will be none, as marked in the plan. We would like to ask you to not bring private alcohol to the alcohol-free events, and to not pressure people to drink. That way, everyone can have a good time :)
• What about Buisiness Computer Science? This event is just for bachlorstudents of applied computer science or applied data science. The orientation week for buisiness computer science is held by the WiWi-faculty, please go to this one!

We usually provide a first semester booklet (Erstiheft) in our orientation week with useful information regarding the beginning of your studies.
We were unable to create one this year due to some internal restructuring.
Nevertheless, we can offer you our first semester booklet from last year (2025).
Not every information is up-to-date, but lots is still usable.
