That was the study information day 2024
A good 1,000 pupils and interested parents came to our university on Saturday for the Student Information Day to find out about the 100 or so study programs on offer. On the Mensa forecourt, they had the opportunity to talk to academics and students at the stands of 8 faculties and find out more about studying and everyday university life. On the campus of the University Medical Center in Leipziger Straße, those interested were able to find out more about the Human Medicine course.
The Rector, Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jens Strackeljan, thanked all those involved: “On behalf of the entire university management, I would like to thank you as participants for this successful event! Thanks to your commitment, your suggestions and your dedication, we have given prospective students and other guests an excellent introduction to Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg.
For the first time, we separated the Student Information Day from the 'Long Night of Science', deliberately chose an earlier date and found a new location in the Mensa forecourt. These suggestions from the student marketing department were not immediately well received everywhere. But the success of the event seems to confirm that we are on the right track with the new ideas and hope to welcome many of the prospective students to the lecture halls and seminar rooms on campus this fall or in the following years.
Student recruitment is a worthwhile joint effort of great importance for OVGU. We need to convince high school graduates and their parents that our degree programs and our campus are attractive reasons to pursue a university education.
I would be delighted if you and your teams continue to help shape the future of OVGU with good ideas and such great commitment!”
A central program for study orientation and information provided pupils with general help in choosing a course of study on the study information day. Among other things, prospective students learned how to search for the right course of study and what to consider when applying to the university.
Partner institutions of the University of Magdeburg provided information and advice on topics such as housing and living in Magdeburg or financing your studies.
