International Office, Faculty of Law
The Law Faculty's international office is the primary contact for German and international students if you have any questions on the international aspects of your law studies.
Open consultation hours
For the time being, the open consultation hours will continue to be held via Zoom. On Tuesdays between 2 p. m. and 4 p. m. and Thursdays between 10 a. m. and 11.30 a. m. You can find the appointment and further information on Stud. IP (see my profile there and go to “Terminvergabe”).
