The impression Fachhochschule Dortmund makes on prospective students from Poland, Romania and Slovakia was demonstrated during a visit during the Dortmund University Days: an excellent one.
"I can well imagine studying here," said Romanian Miruna Redes at the end of her visit. Together with the other visitors from Kielce in Poland and Poprad in Slovakia, the eleventh-grader from Bucharest had previously been given a tour of the laboratories at Fachhochschule Dortmund, got to know the workshops and attended lectures in the lecture halls.
The guests learned how they can apply and how many ways Fachhochschule Dortmund supports students from other countries. Miruna Redes: "It was really well organized."
Through the city
The students also explored the city. The International Office had organized a guided tour of the BVB stadium "Signal Iduna Park" and a visit to the Zeche Zollern mining museum. The excursion ended with a joint dinner at Dortmund's Hövels Hausbrauerei.
Biana Bololoi, also from Bucharest, took home her impressions of "the modern laboratories and the large lecture halls", as well as the "current topics in the courses, which deal with real problems". They can now "very well imagine" studying at Fachhochschule Dortmund.
The "StartING Future" project
The "StartING Future" project strengthens Fachhochschule Dortmund's international partnerships through personal exchanges vor Ort and positions the university as an attractive place to study in the long term. The initiative is funded by the DAAD Support Initiative for German Schools Abroad and Partner Schools (BIDS) until 2027.
