Pre-Course 2025 — Orientation For New GL/CL Students

8 September 2025

Begin your academic journey with our 5-day orientation event!

The pre-course is an opportunity for incoming General and Computational Linguistics students to get a first introduction to their degree through talks, guided workshops, and tours held by students from the Fachschaft and some of your tutors.

Please bring a laptop (+ charger).

ALL students (both GL and CL) are strongly recommended to obtain a laptop for their studies NOW - e.g. there are mandatory programming courses scheduled for the first semester of the Bachelors.

Schedule

Mon, Oct 13th 11:00 - 13:00

Tue, Oct 14th 9:00 - 12:00

Wed, Oct 15th 9:00 - 12:00, 13:00 - 15:00

Thu, Oct 16th 9:00 - 12:00

Fri, Oct 17th 9:00 - 12:00

Schedule subject to change.

A more detailed schedule will be published closer to the pre-course.

There are also two introductory meetings taking place on Monday; the first one at 14:00 is aimed at GL students (but CL students are also encouraged to come), and the second is at 16:00 and aimed at CL students. We strongly encourage you to attend these meetings. You will get an overview and a quick description of all the courses you have to take.

Location

The pre-course will take place in VG Wilhelmstraße (Wilhelmstraße 19, 72074 Tübingen), Hörsaal 0.02.
