Information for Employees of the University of Kassel

The transition to eCampus has been completed. With the introduction of the new system, the technical infrastructure of eCampus has been updated and brought into compliance with current legal requirements. This creates the necessary conditions for planning and implementing further digitization initiatives, integration with the learning management system, and many other projects in the area of teaching over the long term.

Thank you!

We’ve gone through weeks and months marked by changes, challenges, and a great deal of patience. The rollout of our new software version was a massive undertaking that required dedication, flexibility, and a willingness from all of us to move away from our usual ways of working. We are fully aware that such a transition is no walk in the park. Even though the system is now part of our daily routine, you may still be feeling the aftereffects and experiencing the proverbial “teething problems”: Processes that may not yet be running completely smoothly, extra steps, or learning new procedures on top of your already demanding day-to-day work. We’d like to express our sincere thanks for your cooperation.

Current Status

System is live

Day-to-day operations are generally ensured.

Stabilization is underway

Professional and technical revisions are being implemented in stages.

Step-by-Step

Not all outstanding issues can be addressed simultaneously; prioritization is crucial.

The eCampus is in productive use but has not yet been fully rolled out across all areas. The focus is currently on three parallel tracks: the technical stabilization of the system, the structured handling of prioritized academic and technical follow-up tasks, and ensuring that ongoing daily operational tasks are addressed. Since not all outstanding issues can be addressed simultaneously, work is consistently carried out based on priority, impact on operations, and available capacity. Managers and faculty can rest assured that critical functions will take precedence.
