Individual taster course

Interested individuals or groups are always welcome to attend lectures, language courses or proseminars, meet lecturers and students and take a look around one of Heidelberg's state-of-the-art libraries.

If you are interested, simply send a short email to desiree.schostak(at)hfjs.eu or schnupperstudium(at)hfjs.eu and let us know what you would like to attend. You can find the courses in our course catalog.

Please note that the university is closed on Jewish holidays.
You can find the current dates [HERE].

For groups of students, we are also happy to put together an individual program for an entire taster week.
