Our aim is to turn you into the future cycling experts that the mobility industry urgently needs as part of the ongoing socio-ecological transformation. We offer a wide range of lectures and seminars, for example in the fields of planning and traffic psychology. Our courses are aimed at students from various degree programmes and are both scientifically sound and practice-oriented - we have already conducted excursions to Amsterdam, Utrecht, Copenhagen and Ethiopia and also co-organized the Kassel Cycling Weeks "Cycassel" together with students in an interdisciplinary seminar. You can find specific information on our courses below.

Description:

In this seminar we will plan, organize and design the Kassel Cycling Weeks (Cycassel) together, which will take place in May 2026. The aim is to develop a diverse program around cycling, together with social actors and for the urban society. We want to get people beyond the university excited about cycling and make sustainable mobility visible.

If you enjoy organization, teamwork and creative project design or would like to contribute your own ideas, this seminar is the right place for you! The seminar is interdisciplinary, so that students from the social sciences core study program, from the sports teaching degree program, from the mobility, transport and infrastructure master's program, from sustainable management and other disciplines take part in the seminar together.
