Welcome from representatives of the degree programme
Dear students,
welcome to our faculty! We are delighted that you have decided to study with us. To support you in getting off to a great start, we have compiled a range of resources and key information on this page. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the coordinator for the study entry phase or get in touch with our student tutors.
We wish you a successful start to your studies!
In order to inform you about everything important before and during your studies, it is necessary that you join your study program group in Stud.IP:
To do this, follow these steps:
If you have not yet received your study data sheet, you can still see the information in the study program groups (even without logging in). As soon as you have the documents, you should join the corresponding group.
Time and room changes may occur at short notice. Please keep yourself informed by using this page!
Students often face the challenge of fulfilling the mathematical requirements at the beginning of their Bachelor's degree programme. To help you get started with your studies, we offer preliminary courses aimed at prospective students of the Bachelor's degree programmes at the Faculty.
A two-week general maths pre-course is followed by subject-specific courses entitled ‘Mathematical Methods in Electrical Engineering, Energy Technology, Mechatronics & Teaching’ (MMDE) and ‘Mathematical Methods in Computer Engineering, Computer Science & Teaching’ (MMDI). The MMDE course includes a final exam, which is a compulsory part of the degree programme.
We highly recommend participation in the maths pre-course and MMDE/MMDI. In addition to the academic support, you will be able to meet your fellow students and first-year tutors, make friends and form study groups. You will also receive important information about your degree programme at our information events.

As a first-year student at our faculty, you will be supported by our dedicated tutors right from the start. They will be on hand to answer any questions you may have during the preliminary courses. They will also support you throughout your first semester - with helpful tips, games to get to know each other, a first-year student rally, group events and plenty of information on all aspects of university life.
Do you want to get in touch with them now? The first-year tutors will be happy to support you and can be reached via the following contact options:
You will get to know your first-year tutors during the preliminary courses or latest at the welcome reception for first-year students. If you do not have a tutor when you start your degree programme, please contact oe-orga@finf.uni-hannover.de.
You can contact your first-year tutors at oe-master-inf@finf.uni-hannover.de (Computer Science, Computer Science Teacher Training, Computer Engineering), oe-master-et@finf.uni-hannover.de (Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Electrical Engineering Teacher Training) or oe-master-en@finf.uni-hannover.de (Power Engineering).
If you have any questions, you can also contact the Student Councils ("Fachräte"). They are your student representatives at the university and are happy to support you as you begin your studies.
The first-semester welcome flyer Kurzschluss and Informant summarise everything important for you to know when you are starting your studies. They are updated shortly before the start of each semester.
A pre-study placement is required for the bachelor's degree programmes in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Energy Technology and Mechatronics. Ideally, this should be completed before the start of your studies, but must be completed at the latest by the time of registration for the bachelor thesis.
Basic information for international students about life in Hannover and a successful start at Leibniz University can be found in a brochure in English. You will find further important information on the web page "Semester Abroad" in the section "Incoming".
