International Office
Welcome to the International Office!
The International Office mourns the loss of Boris Pohl, who passed away on 18 October 2024.
He was responsible for advising and supporting international students, and he also organised events and field trips, as well as the International Orientation Week. One of his favourite projects was the development and implementation of the Intercultural Meeting Place, which is still influenced by his ideas today. He was an excellent networker, always open to new people from all over the world.
His commitment and helpful and friendly nature were his hallmarks. Boris, we miss you!
