Connecting Students and Staff at the GeoCafé

27 May 2026

We got together with the students and chatted about study life, teaching, and what we can improve.

The best conversations often happen when people just sit down together and talk. With the GeoCafé, our Fachschaft created the perfect space for that: an informal get-together where students and teaching staff could connect over coffee, cake, and good conversation.

What’s our Master’s program like? How can we improve our teaching formats? And how should we approach topics like attendance requirements while keeping classrooms engaged? For almost two hours, we sat together in the courtyard and had an open exchange about student life, teaching, and ideas for the future.

A big thank you to the Fachschaft for organizing the event, and to all the students who joined the conversation!
