First days at H-BRS: Information for freshers / winter semester 2023/24

Information for first semester students

On the overview page of the Student Advice Centre you will find information about the semester ticket and the student ID, the first semester student receptions of the degree programmes, the preparatory courses and much more.

At the start of the new academic year, we warmly welcome the first-semester students to our university on Monday, 25 September 2023 at Sankt Augustin Campus.

For our Bachelor's degree programmes, successful completion of one or more language courses is compulsory. Since this is usually an English course, a placement test in English must be taken at the beginning of the degree programme.
E-Mail, SIS, LEA und WLAN
After registration, new students receive access to the central e-mail server for students via the MIA portal and learn their departmental code for logging on to the student information system SIS and the e-learning system LEA.

The students at the university organise themselves in the departmental student councils, in the Student Parliament (StuPa), the highest decision-making body, and in the General Student Committee (AStA), the executive of the entire student body.
Studying and living
The Studierendenwerk not only offers accommodation but also runs the refectories and cafeterias in Rheinbach and Sankt Augustin. The student card serves as a ticket in the VRS area, library card and chip card for the refectory and for using photocopiers.
