Study! But what? - Study and Career Information Days at the Campus Center of the University of Kassel

This year's study and career information days will once again offer plenty of information. The University of Kassel and the Kassel Employment Agency invite you to the Campus Center at the university location Holländischer Platz on February 19 and 20. More than 50 events will give students in grades 11-13 and others interested in studying a comprehensive overview of the courses offered by the University of Kassel and various vocational training programs from 9 a.m. until the afternoon.

University lecturers and subject specialists will provide information about the content, structure, duration and career prospects of the study and training programs. Information will also be provided about the new bachelor's degree program plusMINT offered at the University of Kassel in the winter semester 2019/20. Those who are interested in natural sciences and engineering, mathematics or computer science, but do not yet want to commit to a field of study, will learn about the range of STEM bachelor's degree programs in the plusMINT orientation program.
In addition, visitors can get advice at information booths on how to find a place to study, volunteer services after school, training programs or study financing.

"Our goal is to give prospective students a vivid insight into our diverse range of studies. With this knowledge, we want to offer young people support for their decision to study," says Thomas Haubrich, who is responsible for the Study Information Days at Kassel University, assessing the high importance of the event.

Consistently high visitor numbers confirm the need for and importance of the Study and Career Information Days in Kassel. Last year, about 8,000 interested people took part in the events. "I am again looking forward to many curious students who want to get new impulses for a well-founded study choice decision in exciting and informative lecture events," says Jörg Giersieper, advisor for academic professions at the Kassel Employment Agency.

Participation in the study and career information days is free of charge and without registration. The lectures will take place in the lecture halls at the Campus Center of the University of Kassel, university location Holländischer Platz. The artistic courses of study will be presented at the Kunsthochschule Kassel, Menzelstr.13, the profession of journalist and professions in publishing at the Hessische Niedersächsische Allgemeine, Frankfurter Str. 168, and the professions in uniform at the Berufsinformationszentrum BIZ of the Agentur für Arbeit, Grüner Weg 46.
