Please inform yourself as early as possible so as not to miss any dates.
On 30 September and 1 October 2021, the student body ("Fachschaft WiSo") is planning to hold the orientation phase ("O-Phase") for all first-semester students on campus in presence - certainly a great opportunity to get to know the premises and your future fellow students personally. If the O-Phase cannot take place on campus due to the pandemic situation, it will be broadcast via Zoom. More information about the O-Phase will be available on the Website of the Fachschaft WiSo.
For first-year students of the B.Sc. Management, Economics and Social Sciences (MES), the department is also planning an on-site orientation week. This will probably take place at the end of September or beginning of October in coordination with the O-Phase. The colleagues are currently working feverishly on the realisation of the on-site event. The exact dates will be announced as soon as possible on the programme website.
We wish you a successful preparatory phase and, last but not least, recommend our social media accounts on Twitter (@WiSoUniCologne), Facebook (@wiso.uni.koeln)and Instagram (@wisokoeln).
