IfSS in the top group in the CHE ranking
The Center for Higher Education Development has examined the subject of sport/sport science at German universities for the second time. The results of the current CHE ranking place the Kassel Institute of Sport and Sport Science in second place behind the University of Freiburg in the overall assessment of teacher training. In a nationwide comparison, the IfSS scored very well in school practice, the range of courses on offer and the support provided by teaching staff. The Institute of Sport and Sport Science at the University of Kassel is also in the top group in other areas, such as e-learning and scientific relevance. Scientific publications have now also been ranked for the first time. Here, too, the IfSS is in the top group!
Compared to the last ranking in 2009, the study conditions and the range of courses on offer to students have been enormously improved and expanded. As a result, the IfSS has been able to develop significantly over the last two years and is one of the top sports teacher training programs in Germany. This year's CHE ranking shows that the university is on the right track," said Vice President Prof. Dr. Andreas Hänlein in an initial reaction on Monday: "This clearly shows that the targeted investments in the area of studies and teaching are bearing fruit.
