In the mentoring program of the WiSo Faculty and the wiconnect e.V. alumni association, students teach students. Especially when beginning a degree program, the orientation is often missing. What courses should I take? How does the OSCA portal work? Where can I get help?

The mentors can help with all these questions. The freshmen mentees can contact their mentors with all their questions - and not only during the first days at the university. The mentors are available to their mentees with help and advice even beyond the first weeks. You benefit from the experience of the mentors because they already know their way around in the Faculty of Business Management and Social Sciences.

Becoming a mentor is easier than you think: The mentors pick up the new freshmen at the beginning of the semester after the welcome by the course coordinators.

Student Council members representing the students of the Faculty of Business Management and Social Sciences. All members are elected by the students in university elections. The Student Council also organizes the first weekend where freshmen are invited to get to know each other.

There is more information about the WiSo Student Council on the Hochschulfreunde Osnabr¨¹ck website.
