Starting in the 2024/25 winter semester, the Faculty of Humanities and Education will offer a peer mentoring program in which upperclassmen (= peers) serve as mentors for first-year students. The goal of the program is to ease the transition into university life. It is particularly well-suited for discussing topics such as creating a course schedule, choosing a major, practical experiences, general and specific questions about daily student life, or study abroad opportunities with students in higher semesters, allowing first-year students to benefit from their wealth of experience. In addition, regular networking meetings complement the one-semester program.

For students in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering (and other engineering programs)

The program offers you the opportunity to, for example, advance your career plans, build networks, and prepare for the typical challenges of starting your career through workshops on topics such as assessment training or salary negotiation. Even if you still have some time before graduation and are just starting to think about choosing a specialization, the Mentor.ING Program is a great fit: You set the topics, as the focus is on exchanging ideas with a mentor from industry or research. You can benefit from our mentors’ extensive experience and spend an entire semester discussing your topics together. Spaces are limited; the program is open to bachelor’s (starting in the 4th semester) and master’s students in the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering.

The program takes place only during the winter semester. Applications are due by August 31.

Note for students from other faculties: If spaces remain available, interested students from other engineering programs at TU Braunschweig may be considered.

A service provided by TU Braunschweig

“Sag’s uns” is the central hub for managing ideas and complaints related to academic studies and teaching for students at TU Braunschweig.

As an ombuds office, "Sag’s uns" is an independent, neutral resource for students who need support with questions, problems, or conflicts related to studies and teaching. Inquiries are treated confidentially and forwarded anonymously. Since the staff are not directly involved in examination matters, counseling, information sharing, problem-solving, and mediation are conducted in a neutral and impartial manner.

As a central idea and complaint management service, the goal of "Sag’s uns" is to centrally collect student feedback and handle it transparently. We aim to address ideas and problems in order to improve the quality and satisfaction in studies and teaching.

Sag’s uns is managed by staff members from Department 16, Studies and Teaching.
