When do the introductory events usually take place?
Generally, introductory events for the various subjects take place in the two weeks before lectures begin, sometimes also in the first week of lectures. However, this varies from subject to subject. For instance, some subjects at the Faculty of Humanities, Social Sciences and Theology (FAU Phil) already offer introductory events in September: https://www.phil.fau.de/studium/studienbeginn/info-fuer-erstsemester .
We recommend checking the relevant pages in good time to avoid missing any events.
