Get to know your surroundings & people

At BTU, we aim to make your time abroad more than just an academic experience — we want it to be memorable, enriching, and a foundation for your future.

During your stay in Cottbus, you will have many opportunities to meet new people, experience different cultures, develop social and personal skills, and create lasting memories.

The International Relations Office is here to support you in building these meaningful connections.

From sports and student clubs to local volunteering opportunities or the BTU Buddy Programme, there are many ways to get involved and make the most of your time here. 

Through excursions, collaborations with local organisations, and a wide range of campus events throughout the year, we encourage you to actively take part and explore what BTU has to offer.

Make the most of your time at BTU — get involved both on campus and beyond, and turn your studies abroad into a truly life-changing experience.
