English

Boost your study skills with our English workshops and online learning materials!


When studying abroad in a new country, there are many new things that you have to get used to. For example, learning a new language, understanding your university's culture and procedures, creating your own schedule, and finding a healthy work-life balance. In order to be more successful in your studies and also enjoy the process along the way, the mastering of some basic soft skills – which we call key competencies – is beneficial. 

At Schlüsselkompetenzen im Studium, we address these key competencies and study skills. In our free and interactive workshops, that are offered in both English and German, you will have the opportunity to acquire knowledge and develop skills in six areas:

Self-Organization and Time Management
Learning Strategies
Communicating and Presenting
Mental Health
Intercultural Competencies
Digital Skills and Collaboration

Workshops

In general, we have three different formats for our workshops:

  • the Compact Week right before the start of the semester to give you a boost in work techniques,
  • our ongoing program throughout the semester with workshops on the six areas listed above,
  • the Exam Special in the last third of the semester to help you prepare for your exams.
For information regarding the registration and an overview of all English workshops offered in the current semester, please go to our:


You can find all workshops (German and English) and the opportunity to register on our registration form.

Online Learning Materials

In addition to our workshops, you can use our online learning materials to familiarise yourself with methods and working techniques, to come to grips with a topic or to deepen your knowledge.

We are currently working on making all of our learning courses, handouts, checklists and explanatory videos available in English.
