Welcome to the winter semester!

10 Oct 2024

The lecture period for the winter semester 2024/25 has started on October 14. Important information about the start of studies is available in the freshman hub.

The start of a study program is often characterized by questions. Where will my lectures take place? How can I study abroad? How can I find a part-time job? On October 14, all first-semester students found answers – concentrated in the atrium of the LMU. The annual Freshers' Welcome is an opportunity to meet new people, exchange ideas and answer important questions about studying.
