Excursions
For some courses, you must show that you have completed several excursions to graduate. But what options are there?
Most departments offer interesting, organized visits to trade fairs, which you can get credited as an excursion day – such as BrauBeviale, Agritechnica, or the International Green Week Berlin. There are also excursions to dairies, various companies in the life science sector, or areas of scenic interest. Some courses already include excursions, but these usually cannot be credited as a separate excursion day. The tours are generally organized by the chairs or other institutions (VWU, student council, etc.) – don't worry, you will be informed.
During the Pentecost excursion week in the summer semester, we sometimes go further afield: follow in the footsteps of agriculture in Ecuador, Spain, and Russia or learn interesting facts about food and beverage production on a tour across Germany.
