We warmly welcome all new students of the study programmes Chemistry, BME, LaG Chemistry and LaB Chemical Engineering at the TU Darmstadt. For the start of your studies, the Chemistry Student Council organizes the Orientation Week (OWo). During this week, you will receive important information for a successful start to your studies, get to know fellow students, prepare your timetable and register for your first lab course, meet some lecturers and get a short guided tour of Darmstadt.

Our department’s OWo always takes place one week before your lectures begin. Students of teaching degrees (LaG) should be aware that there may be overlaps depending on their second subject area. In this case, please contact us by e-mail and we will try to advise you on which division between the two OWos makes sense.

You can also find a compact collection of offers for first-semester students, sorted by degree course, on the department's website.

General information about starting your studies at the TU Darmstadt can be found on the central page for prospective students.

The OWo will take place this year from 07.10.2024 to 10.10.2024. Most of the events will take place together for students of all degree programmes of the department, only blocks for more detailed explanations of the individual degree courses will be offered separately..

You should receive more information about this via email soon. In case of any questions, you can contact us via our address or via Instagram.

Please do not register in advance for any lectures or courses on TUCaN. We will do this together with you during the OWo.

If you are unable to attend during the OWo, please contact us by e-mail. We will then explain to you exactly which steps still need to be taken urgently. In addition, we can add your email address to the mailing list for our newsletter so that you won't miss any news in the future.
