HAWK University holds orientation for new health and engineering students

The HAWK University of Applied Sciences and Arts recently held its Study Entrance Phase (STEP) to welcome new students for the winter semester 2026/27.

Approximately 180 first-year students in health-related programs participated in a three-day orientation at the Göttingen Health Campus, a collaborative site between HAWK and University Medicine Göttingen (UMG). The program included interprofessional activities designed to introduce students to various fields such as nursing, midwifery, physiotherapy, and social work in healthcare.

Additionally, around 100 students from the engineering departments attended a seven-day orientation at the Göttingen Zietenterrassen campus, which featured mathematics preparatory courses and project days to facilitate their transition into regular lectures.
