Virtual buddy programme

Studying at a university in another country is very exciting, even more so if studying takes place virtually. To support you during your digital experience at the Universität Tübingen and to promote an intercultural exchange, they have set up a virtual Buddy program.

During the Virtual Buddy Program, a student of the Universität Tübingen teams up with a participant of TÜ-VIP. The Virtual Buddy Program aims to initiate a cultural exchange between international students and students of the Universität Tübingen in order to expand one’s own cultural horizon and strengthen one's intercultural skills and competences. The Virtual Buddy Program will allow you to get to know German student life first-hand and to make friends.
