Dear international students at RWTH Aachen University,

summer has arrived in full force, bringing long sunny days and new energy to campus life. One of the highlights of the past weeks was our first Career Day International on June 16, where we celebrated the successful completion of our program with a certificate award ceremony and enjoyed inspiring conversations with students, alumni, and employers.

While many of you are already making plans for the summer months, there is still plenty to discover in our program. Several seminars are coming up in the weeks ahead, and a few spots are still available for those who would like to join.

We invite you to take advantage of these remaining opportunities, gain valuable insights into the German job market, and continue building the skills and connections that will support your future career.
