The program is always planned for the whole day, until late in the evening! (If you have problems going home late, don’t hesitate to contact us for a couch close to university)
A big part of the program is outside, so take the weather into account.
The dates are not alternatives but there is a 3-day program (Monday, Wednesday, Thursday) for all people starting their master this semester (regardless if you have done your master in Cologne or somewhere else) and a semester start festival for the whole physics department on Saturday.
