Universities are responsible for teaching and research. The rest is taken care of by studierendenWERK BERLIN.
The studierendenWERK BERLIN is responsible for numerous Berlin universities and offers services that contribute to the successful completion of your studies.
We have put together an overview of these services here, including tips and fails for first-year students.
The studierendenWERK BERLIN runs the canteens on the campuses of the various universities. Our food trucks bring food to your campus or hall of residence. You can find the menus for your canteen or the food trucks here:
Important to know: You can only pay with your MensaCard. Most of you already have this integrated into your CampusCard.
