As the common core of the degree program for all future teachers , this compulsory partial degree program is a place forexchange across school levels, school types and subjects.

The main aim of the core study program is to develop the ability to reflect and act in the practical pedagogical field of school and teaching. At the same time, the core course addresses the social framework conditions relevant to education, school and teaching.

This role must be set so that you can register for the core study program via Prios.
• For students who wish to release an allocated place after completing the Prios procedure or who still need a place, there is the procedure
  "Deregister + re-register + move up" in eCampus. Places you have returned will be made available to your fellow students.
• With the so-called simple voucher procedure in eCampus, registration / deregistration takes place via the functions register  / deregister . There are no uniform deadlines for this.
  Admissions / rejections are decentralized, e.g. by departments.

Each matriculation number at the University of Kassel is assigned only once and is therefore unique.

If you submit only your first name and last name for inquiries, it could be that there are several enrollees to whom this information also applies. The resulting necessary queries will lead to a delay in the clarification of your request.

Please use the university e-mail address (ukxxxxxx@student.uni-kassel.de) for your inquiries.
