The 2022 central reception of first-year students in pictures and video Streamers and stadium waves to kick off university life
Finally the first-year students’ central reception took place again and finally in the Eintracht stadium again! After two years and two online events due to Corona, TU Braunschweig was able to welcome its new students in person again. 3,200 students will start their Bachelor’s or Master’s studies in the winter semester 2022/23. Our picture gallery shows the highlights of the event and the info fair on the university square and in the foyer of the Audimax.
