Inform, Orientate, Decide
It is important to thoroughly inform yourself before starting your studies in order to make the right choice. There are several ways to get to know the university in advance, such as visiting study fairs near your hometown, attending the university campus day, or scheduling a study consultation on-site in Freiberg. Additionally, participating in the school-university week during vacations provides opportunities to understand the content, requirements, and perspectives of various courses of study.
