Programme:

The activities begin on Wednesday, 9:00 am with the registration.

To get to know the GSLS better, we will start at 9:30 am with an Overview of the GSLS and the Structured Study Program followed by Introductions of:

• DRC and EUREKA!
• UFB Mentoring Program
• Uni Wü Community Mentoring Program
• bts Life Sciences Student Initiative

Afterwards we will have your Project Pitches - a great opportunity to get to know each other and network with your peers.

In the afternoon we offer a City Tour of Würzburg to give you an insight into the history and culture of the city you are living in.

To round off the first day in a relaxed fashion the DRC offers a pub crawl starting at the Alte Mainbrücke after the City Tour.

On Thursday, 9:00 am - approx. 4:00 pm we offer a range of one-day workshops which count towards the requirements of the structured programme. Places allocated on a first come, first served basis!
