What we do

The University's Welcome Centre is the first port of call for international (early career) academics who need assistance with matters of residence status, insurances, accommodation, access to the university’s infrastructure (ZIM credentials & CampusCard), support for their families travelling with them and furthering integration.

With its service portfolio, the Welcome Centre strengthens the internationalisation of the University and supports the hosting chairs and institutions.

The staff of the Welcome Centre additionally serve as contact persons for international guests who join the University as part of the Erasmus+ personal mobility programme for further training and education or teaching.

  • international (guest) lecturers/professors

  • international academic research and teaching staff
  • international doctoral candidates (important information for doctoral researchers)
