ON-Boarding Week
Changing into a new living environment is always challenging. To help you settle in, the OVGU offers an academic ON-Boarding week that will introduce you to the study programs and the university. In addition to that the Student Council of the FEM "FaraWiwi" organizes events to accustom you with life at the OVGU and in the city of Madgeburg.
