How to take part
Take the International Office backpack with you on your semester abroad and send us a picture of your shared adventures:
- Do you and the backpack visit a kangaroo park in Australia?
- Do you carry university documents in the backpack while enjoying the view from the skyscraper Taipei 101?
- You are on a hiking trip along fjords, and are bringing your lunch along in the International Office backpack?
Exciting prizes will be awarded in a drawing from among all entries!
Conditions
Send us your photo by March 5, 2027 to (preferably as a JPG, resolution at least 240 dpi) with the subject "photo contest". You don't need professional equipment to participate, a smartphone photo is sufficient.

How do I get a backpack?
You can either pick up your backpack directly at the International Office in Fritz-Foerster-Bau, rooms 156 or 158, or you can send your postal address to and we will send it to you before your stay abroad.
