Welcome Buddy Program

The Welcome Buddy Program aims to help international students to get a good start with their studies and everyday life in Hamburg. For this reason, we match up each international student (Incoming Buddy) with a current Hamburg student (Welcome Buddy) who can make the international student’s arrival easier and help them to find their bearings in Hamburg and at our University.
