    The Intercultural Center is also here to help students as they complete their studies and take the big step of starting to plan their careers. We are particularly here for students interested in pursuing an international career abroad or working for an international company in Germany. We currently offer the following:

    Career Workshops
    A series of interactive workshops led by HTWG staff and external coaches and trainers preparing you to work abroad

    Career Day
    A one-day event with short practical-oriented workshops to help you find jobs and internships

    Company Visits
    A special opportunity to get a glimpse inside local companies and speak to company representatives


    Career Workshops: For Germany and Abroad

    The workshop series is designed to help you improve your future skills for an (international) career and prepare you for your career entry in the best possible way. Each semester we offer at least 4 three-hour workshops on different topics. The WI workshops are open to all HTWG students - within the Studium generale you can also collect ECTS points for them!

    The workshops, which are led by HTWG staff and external coaches and trainers, cover a wide range of topics, from the successful design of your application documents - even your CV in English, tips from experienced consultants on (international) career planning to the development of conflict management strategies.
