Enrollment for PhD Students
8. Welcome Days for PhD students starting in September
All PhD students starting in September (official start of the academic year at KLU) commence their studies at KLU with a Welcome Day. This is an introductory day offering orientation for you.
In case you start your PhD during the year you will have no official introduction period, but of course on your first day we will answer all questions you may have!
Dress Code & Public Transportation
Dress Code at KLU
You will need formal as well as informal clothes for your studies at KLU. A normal lecture day at KLU is casual, some events are business casual, others like the Graduation ceremony are business formal. If you are not sure about the dress code you may check dress code or inquire with current KLU students via the KLU students Facebook group.
Public Transportation / HVV Ticket
We offer a semester ticket for public transport to our PhD students. PhD students are charged the reduced student rate of € 222 (for 6 months). Only students who are not employed at KLU will be asked in time if you would like to make use of this offer. The others can take up the offer via our HR team.
The semester ticket will be handed out on your first day at the KLU, when all formalities are settled and your enrollment is complete. Until then you will have to buy a ticket at a HVV office or vending machine yourself.
