The IT Center was once again part of this year’s Welcome Week for the winter semester 2023/2024 at RWTH Aachen University! Especially international students have the opportunity to get acquainted with the services and processes of RWTH Aachen University.

Unlike previous events, this time there was no live digital lecture on our IT services. But don’t worry, there was still a video. The Welcome Week team changed the concept and adapted it to your wishes. In addition, we were live on site at the Freshers’ Fair in the Audimax on September 27, 2023, and were on hand to offer advice and support to new students.

In the following blog post, we will tell you about the Freshers’ Fair, the newly designed information video about our IT services, and also give you some help for a successful semester.

New semester, new students! Also this year, the International Office of RWTH Aachen University organized events to welcome the new international students. To prepare them for student life and procedures at RWTH Aachen University, there were many lectures and a variety of supporting programs. The IT Center was also there: we provided information about basic IT services and explained how to use them.

The IT Center at the RWTH Welcome Week

Within the Welcome Week for the summer semester 2022, our employee Linda Jörres had the pleasure to give a lecture entitled “Making use of IT Services”. About 130 participants dialed into the video conference on the morning of March 30, 2022 to learn more about IT services and how to use them.

The very next day, the next item on the agenda for the IT Center was scheduled: Participating in the Freshers’ Fair! This is the information market where students could inform themselves about the different institutions and facilities at RWTH Aachen University, this time even in presence in front of the SuperC. For the IT Center, our employees Dunja Gath and Linda Jörres were on site to answer questions.

Despite the rainy and cold weather, the mood among the new international students was excellent! Many happy faces were welcomed.

We were very happy to be part of the Welcome Week again and would like to take this opportunity to thank the organizing team!

Welcome Weeks Online – Digital and Brilliant for the Winter Semester 20/21

October 2nd, 2020 | by

Twice a year, everything at RWTH Aachen University is about the start of studies. This year, the summer semester has also got off to a successful start, although the conditions surrounding the Covid-19 pandemic required a completely different approach than we are normally used to. The winter semester 2020/2021 will also be characterized primarily by digital courses. For this reason, the International Office’s traditional introductory week has also been converted to a digital format.

Since the actual event of this semester could not take place on site, the Welcome Week has become an “Online Welcome Weeks Program” for our international students. We were also able to participate again with a digital information stand at the Freshers’ Fair and an interactive lecture on the IT Services of the IT Center, which are especially important for the start of the digital semester.
