Universität des Saarlandes | Flashcards & Lecture Notes

To facilitate the first steps towards the beginning of the semester, Saarland University has put together a checklist. Here you can check step by step whether you have thought of everything: from the UdS card, preliminary courses to the timetable. There is also an introductory event for freshmen students in which you can find out all the important information about the course. Here you can ask questions, get to know your fellow students and get to know the teachers and the student council. It is also advisable to download the StudySmarter learning app. StudySmarter can make your learning easier. You have the option to activate your courses at your university and access all documents. In addition, you can create your own summaries or index cards and learn them from anywhere. Another great point is that you can create learning plans and study groups. Either you join in already created learning groups and access the learning content or you create your own private study group with your friends - fellow students and you can support each other in learning.

Yes, you can study abroad for one or two semesters at Saarland University. Either go to a foreign university as part of an exchange at one of the partner universities or as a FreeMover on your own. The advantages of exchange studies are that you will be dismissed the sometimes quite high tuition fees, and there are already experiences and structures that you can fall back on. However, you have to make sure that only certain subjects are offered at the partner universities. Erasmus + is a program of the European Union to promote educational stays in Europe. With this program you can study at one of the partner universities from the second year of study. You can also receive support and financial support for an internship abroad. If you go abroad as a FreeMover, you have more options in choosing where to study. The preparation and follow-up of your stay abroad will be much more complex.
