LMU Gateway
Supporting international visiting researchers and doctoral candidates
Many thanks to the LMU Gateway team for their assistance throughout my moving and settling in process in Munich. Their support regarding my residence permit application is much appreciated. It was also so much fun to join the Pub Quiz event and meet other international researchers from our university.Merve Kutlu, PhD Student (TR)
Lucy and the LMU Gateway team were indispensable in my journey to LMU. They were supportive and patient at every step, from helping me secure housing to much needed assistance navigating Germany’s entry requirements during Covid. There was no question too small, and my numerous emails were always met with both kindness and excellent information.Samantha Small, PhD Student (USA)
