Student Advising
At the Institute for American Studies, students find a comprehensive net of advising to assist them in all questions relating to the organization of their programs of study (including internships and study abroad) and student life.
For help in organizing your studies, you can generally turn to any of the faculty members listed below, but please check everybody’s individual ‘tags’ for their particular study-advising areas and contact the person best suited for your question.
In addition, fellow students from your Student Body Council (Fachschaftsrat) will be happy to help you in many other cases as well, and the university also offers central assistance for general (especially administrative or organizational) questions related to studying at Leipzig University.
Finally, it might also make sense to consult our page on frequently asked questions to check whether your question has already been answered there.
