During the Introduction Week (also called Orientation Week), the new students (freshmen or “Erstis” in German) receive an introduction to the subject and the Department of Physics from the view of students. The Introduction Week always takes place one week before the lectures start (often the first week of October). We recommend all freshmen with physics as a subject (even as a minor) to attend this introduction.
The Introduction Week 2026 will take place from 05.10. to 08.10.2026.
(subject to change)
In the following, we would like to provide you with some important information in advance. We will upload our information magazine for freshmen in physics – the Ersti-Φbel – as well as the slides to all talks given by members of the Student Council to the internal area after the Introduction Week.
For Information on studying physics outside the Introduction Week and in general take a look at our FAQ and theinfo page of the Department of Physics. You can also send us your questions via e-mail at fsphys@uni-muenster.de.
Herewith you can find the timetable of the Introduction Week from 2025.
