The most important dates and offers for the start of studies

At the University of Kassel there is not the an introductory event. Rather, there is an extensive offer of different "Veranstalter:innen":

  • On the one hand, the departments offer an official program. This type of introductory event is about the subject of study: What is this subject thematically about? Which majors are offered in Kassel? Which professors and subject areas determine the content? So: by all means attend and ask questions!
  • For some (not all) courses and subjects we recommend participation in preliminary courses. Pre-courses are aimed at first-year students who would like to refresh their knowledge in certain subjects. The preliminary courses start before the introduction dates.
  • Often the student councils also offer introductory courses. The student council is part of the student self-organization and deals with the specific questions of the students of a department. In terms of content, it deals with questions about the course of studies, the organization of the curriculum, the organization of learning and examinations. The student councils thus offer help with the question of how best to study this subject.
  • In addition, there are "welcome events": First semester welcome, offers for students with children, offers for international students.

Pre-course/Propedeutic
04.10.-13.10.23 Pre-course Spanish

In order to be able to study successfully, it is important that you develop your language skills quickly after the start of your studies so that you can use Spanish without any problems at the level B1 , both in order to successfully complete the individual modules of the language practice and to participate in the courses of the subject sciences. We support you with special language practice courses, which are called Propädeutikum and are taught exclusively by native speakers: Within the first winter semester you will reach the B1 level by means of a combination of block courses and regular weekly sessions. 

I do not have a B1 level yet.

If you do not have a B1 language level when you start your studies, you will catch up on the necessary skills in a preliminary course and during the semester. To the preliminary course in Spanish


I have the language level B1 or higher
If you can already prove the level B1 , it is possible to directly attend the courses of the first module of the language practice. 

If you have even higher language level , please takethe placement test  scheduled immediately before the beginning of the semester, so that you can then find a suitable start for the modules of language practice:
