What do I need know about the Germany’s student funding scheme BAföG? What scholarships and grants are available? How can I finance a period studying or working as an intern abroad? And where can I find part-time jobs whilst studying? These and many other questions about the financial side of studying will be answered at this year's Student Finance Day on 27 May. From 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., prospective and current students can drop in at the Innovation Center (Building A2 1, ground floor).
