And if so, which degree programme suits me? True to the motto &#8220;Try before you study&#8221;. After four rounds, the orientation study programme came to an end in the summer semester of 2022.<\/p>\n<p>A total of 191 participants took part in the orientation study programme and simulated studying for two semesters in a condensed form. Starting with an orientation week and campus rally, through the regular semester programme with attendance at teaching and information events as well as sports and language courses, to the conclusion with examinations and final study achievements, the trial studies hardly differed from a conventional study programme. The participants were enrolled as part of an extended guest student programme and even had access to a semester ticket.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_52083\" style=\"width: 1510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Orientierungsstudium_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-52083\" class=\"size-full wp-image-52083\" src=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Orientierungsstudium_1.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Yvonne A.

For example, various degree programmes were presented in a lecture series. In laboratory practicals and programming courses, the students were able to try out their skills.<\/p>\n<p>Special attention was paid to the topic of study skills, as this is constantly the subject of academic discussions, not only at TU Braunschweig. The focus was on teaching knowledge and skills relevant to studying, such as scientific work, but also on reflecting on one&#8217;s own skills and potential.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_52085\" style=\"width: 1510px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Orientierungsstudium_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-52085\" class=\"size-full wp-image-52085\" src=\"https:\/\/magazin.tu-braunschweig.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Orientierungsstudium_2.jpg\" alt=\"Andr\u00e9 V\u00f6lker von der Zentralen Studienberatung (links) verabschiedete Ende Juli den letzten Jahrgang des Orientierungsstudiums.
