The winter semester starts in October and around 50 young people from all over the world will be starting their studies at Coburg University of Applied Sciences. To make it easier for them to get started, the university’s International Office is looking for mentors from the region. The participants can look forward to an exciting intercultural exchange.
The GastFREUNDschaft project brings together young people from all over the world who are starting their studies or completing an exchange at Coburg University of Applied Sciences with citizens from the region. The aim is to make it easier for students to get started in a completely foreign environment. If you are interested in foreign cultures, want to brush up on your foreign language skills or simply enjoy introducing young students to the highlights of Coburg and the region, GastFREUNDschaft is the right place for you. Participants can expect exciting encounters, intercultural exchange and international friendships. Whether it’s walks together, visits to the theater or enjoying Franconian delicacies – everything is possible, nothing is a must! The participants decide individually how often and for what purpose they meet.
The International Office at Coburg University of Applied Sciences is also happy to provide ideas and assistance and to offer advice. Together with Coburg Marketing, a number of supporting events will also be organized in the coming months. For example, the temporary mentors and mentor “children” will be brought together at a kick-off event at Coburg University of Applied Sciences on Thursday, October 17 at 5 pm. For further information about the project and to register by Sunday, October 6, please contact the International Office at Coburg University of Applied Sciences: marion.haase@hs-coburg.de, Tel. 09561 317 317.
