Welcome Week

Your welcome in Mannheim

At the beginning of each semester, we welcome all exchange students personally to the University of Mannheim. During the Welcome Week at the beginning of the spring semester, orientation sessions, receptions, and events are held to help our international students settle into their new living and learning environment.

Events

The International Office and the schools of the University of Mannheim would like to help you get off to a good start. We are looking forward to seeing you at our events.

At the beginning of each semester, the various university departments and the International Office organize numerous interesting events that make it much easier to get to know other students. My best experience in Mannheim was the “Raise your Flag” party, which was organized by VISUM during the Welcome Week. I got to know many people from all over the world there. Many of them have become good friends with whom I spent most of the semester.
