FUBIS FAQ

The FUBiS student identity card identifies you as student of Freie Universität Berlin and entitles you to various discounts. You need it in the Mensa to get your meal at the student price. You also need it to use the libraries. In addition, you can receive the student discount in many cinemas, theaters, museums and other venues if you show your student ID. Please note that there are no discounts on Berlin public transportation tickets/passes for short-term student.

If you have a laptop, we recommend you bring it with you because it will be easier for you to do your homework and other assignments. If your laptop is equipped with Wi-Fi you can access to the university internet network available on campus. If you do not bring a laptop, you can use the computer facilities of Freie Universität Berlin (ZEDAT).

In the library (as everywhere on campus) you can use your own laptop, tablet or smartphone with the wifi-network called "eduroam".

You can also use our library computers for using the Internet or to print

With your FUBiS student identity card you will have access to all Freie Universität Berlin libraries and can use the books shelved there in the reading rooms. Unfortunately, you may not take books out of the libraries because they require you to have a permanent address in Germany.

Mit Ihrem FUBiS-Studierendenausweis haben Sie Zugang zu allen Bibliotheken der Freien Universität Berlin und können dort die Bücher aus dem Präsenzbestand in den Lesesälen benutzen. Das Ausleihen von Büchern und das Mitnehmen nach Hause sind leider nicht möglich, da die Bibliotheken hierfür einen deutschen Wohnsitz verlangen.
