Advice and services for Ukrainian WiSo students
If we can currently support you in your study planning or if you are looking for individual solutions because you cannot concentrate on your studies at the moment, we will be happy to help you quickly and unbureaucratically. For example, we will put together a concrete schedule for the summer semester so that you only have to register the modules in KLIPS. Or we can arrange an extension of the deadline for your final thesis if it is due soon. Please simply get in contact with us.
