The International Peer-Mentoring Programme supports international students during their first semester at the University of Klagenfurt.
International students are accompanied by higher-semester students (mentors), who answer important questions and provide mentees with orientation at the university.
You are an international student in your first semester at the University of Klagenfurt? You have questions about your studies, the university or life in Klagenfurt? You want to meet students from higher semesters who can share tips and show you around? We got you!
Our mentors are students from higher semesters who want to support you at the beginning of your studies. You can contact us at any point during the semester to get in touch with one of our mentors.
You can come to our Open Hours or join one of our Infoevents.
You can join our Moodle course to find out more about the mentors or find more helpful information for international students.
All our offers for students are free of charge and do not require pre-registration!
