We appreciate your interest in doing your semester abroad at THM. Here you find what you have to do when preparing your stay in Giessen/Friedberg.
You can apply for an exchange semester at THM if your home instituation is one of our partner instutions. Here is a list of our partner institutions.
We strongly recommend that international students purchase statutory student health insurance from a German insurance company after their arrival in Germany. Premiums for all statutory health insurance policies for students amount to approx. 80 euros a month (including payments for nursing care insurance) assuming the student is under the age of 30 and has been an enrolled student no longer than seven years (14 semesters). Health insurance from private companies is also available. For numerous reasons, however, we recommend that students purchase statutory health insurance. You can find out more about health insurance by talking to us during our office hours.
As a rule you can no longer have statutory health insurance at student rates after your 30th birthday or after your seventh year (14th semester) enrolled as a student. However, you can retain your insurance at a higher premium rate. If due to the higher premiums you are considering changing over to a private health insurance plan, we would recommend that you contact the Giessen Student Services Organisation"s "Advice on Social Affairs" for advice.
The International Buddy Programme (IBP) is a service offered by the THM"s International Office. The programme aims to promote intercultural relationships and help new international students get off to a good start at THM and in their surroundings.
Each semester a new international student (called a "newcomer") and a THM student (called an "oldie") are put together to form a buddy team. When putting buddy teams together, both the relevant degree modules and the individual interests of all participants are taken into consideration. In spending time together during the semester the buddies in a team support each other.
Buddies are students at THM and international students taking German classes in preparation for the their degree course who are looking for intercultural encounters and are interested in intercultural exchange.
After you have submitted your registration you will be assigned a buddy from your department or degree course. When putting teams together, the programme director and student tutors take both degree subjects and individual interests, hobbies and language proficiency into consideration.
After a buddy has been found for you, you should take the initiative and introduce yourself via email or WhatsApp. If you have not been able to contact your buddy within three weeks, please contact the Buddy Programme director.
The International Career Centre offers international students at THM a comprehensive programme that aims to help them prepare for their career starts in Germany.
We begin with general information on looking for jobs and career starts in Germany (such as the general legal framework). This is followed by sessions on the application procedures used by German companies (written CVs submitted by post and online, job interviews). We will go on field trips so students can become acquainted with companies and employers in the region as well as their HR departments and the recruiting procedures used.
The International Career Centre also provides information on career fairs held in the region such as the "Karriere Weltweit" (Career Worldwide) to be held on 6 December 2017 in the Kongresshalle in Giessen, where we will also have a booth.
We hope you"ll get to know us and visit our web page with a list of upcoming events. Plan now your next steps in preparing for your career start.
Take advantage of this opportunity to gain valuable experience about the German labour market so you can start your career successfully. We would like to support you in this endeavour.
