You are a student at Freie Universität Berlin and would like to share your experience with others? Perfect! Apply now for the fifth run of our Student Ambassador Program!

We are looking forward to applications from national and international students, who are staying at least one year in Berlin.

In the last round, Ailan, CheWei, Felipe, Ishita, Julija und Stella provided a wide range of insights as weStudents. After this great run, we are now looking forward to new ideas.

Why is there the ambassador program?

Before taking up a course of study, many people are faced with the (often difficult) question of not only what to study, but also where. Most of them have to decide on a university that they don't even know yet. And the closer you get to the start of your studies, the more questions arise. Especially if you plan to study abroad. You probably remember this time well. And that's exactly why you are needed in this program.

Your input as an ambassador should support prospective students. You should present the university from your point of view and report authentically about your experiences. By using videos, photos, short articles published on the social media channels of Freie Universität Berlin, prospective students will gain an insight into student and campus life at the university. The aim is to provide new students with helpful information to ease their transition to university.

What are your tasks as an ambassador?

Generating ideas within the team, finding topics, setting priorities and summarizing them in a concept.

Additionally, you will show student and campus life by:

  • taking pictures
  • shooting short videos
  • writing articles for social media and website
  • hosting digital meet-ups

We are looking forward to your creative ideas and your active work. Before we start the tasks, we will have a chat with you and the other ambassadors to go over the specific roles each of you will take on. You do not have to be an all-round talent.

We will provide you with a smartphone, accessories as well as apps for editing and postproduction.

Why should you become an ambassador?

You will get:

  • a remuneration for the duration of the cooperation (approx. 4 months, 8 hours per week)
  • a certificate of participation in the Student Ambassadors Program
  • a training (photos and short videos for social media)
  • the opportunity to bring prospective students closer to real university life and help first-year students by providing helpful information
  • the great experience of participating in an exciting program ;)

Who can become an ambassador?

Enrolled national and international students of Freie Universität Berlin who

  • study Bachelor or Master programs (the subject is irrelevant)
  • are students or exchange students for at least one year
  • have time from April to August 2024 (on average eight hours per week, including weekly update meetings with the Student Marketing and Communications Team)
  • are fluent in spoken and written English at a very good level,
  • want to work creatively

Apply now!

You can apply until April 12th, 2024 via the online application form.

We are looking forward to your application!
