The path to a new degree.<\/h1>\n

During the induction week, the 43 first-semester students have the opportunity to get to know Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts better.<\/p>\n

The induction<\/strong> week for new first-semester students at Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts begins on September 23. There will be an extensive programme during these days. This will give first-year students four days to get to know Faculty III <\/a>at Expo Plaza and their future fellow students in detail. For example, students can take a guided tour of the faculty’s own library in the Kurt-Schwitters-Forum<\/a> or find out more about the work of the student council. On the second day of the induction week, things really get going: students are personally welcomed to their degree programme by their future lecturers. The meeting point for this is on Tuesday afternoon at 3 p.m. in the atrium next to lecture hall EP 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year, 43 students are starting their studies on the “Visual Journalism and Documentary Photography”<\/a> course at Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts.\nThe majority of first-year students have already been able to successfully prepare for the selection process through one of the free portfolio consultations<\/a> offered by Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts.\nIt is pleasing to note that a large proportion of those who took part in the artistic aptitude test actually decided to study<\/a> at Hannover University of Applied Sciences and Arts afterwards.\nAnother positive trend can also be observed: At more than 69 percent, the proportion of FLINTA* individuals is particularly high this year.\nThis means that the new generation of students clearly contradicts conventions in the traditionally male-dominated sector. <\/p>\n\n\n
