Practical Semester? Go Abroad!
Studying to become a teacher and thinking about completing your practical semester at a school abroad instead of in Thuringia? At this info evening hosted by the Centre for Teacher Education and Educational Research (ZLB), you'll learn how to organize and finance your mandatory internship at schools worldwide. Working in multicultural teaching teams and culturally diverse classrooms broadens your perspective as a future teacher – and prepares you for the intercultural challenges you'll also encounter in German schools. Open to teacher training students of all subjects.

The 5 Pillars of Student Financing
How do you finance your studies – beyond BAföG? In this online session, the Studierendenwerk Thüringen (student services organization) gives you a compact overview of all five pillars: BAföG (state funding), parental support, scholarships, part-time jobs and housing benefit. You'll also get to know the Studierendenwerk itself, which brings many services together under one roof – from dining halls and student residences to social and psychosocial counselling, daycare centres and cultural programmes. Conveniently via Zoom, no registration needed.

Doubts About Your Studies? – Anonymous Online Workshop by the Student Advisory Service
Almost every student reaches a point where they question their studies – and that's exactly what this workshop is for. The Central Student Advisory Service shows you how doubts arise, how to deal with them productively and which paths are open to you: continuing your programme, switching subjects or universities, or reorienting completely. The BAföG question is covered too. What makes it special: The workshop is deliberately anonymous – you log in with a pseudonym, keep your camera off and ask questions by voice or chat. Confidential, open-ended and low-threshold.
