D-34109 Kassel
Germany
The University of Kassel is a young, modern and vibrant university, characterized by its openness to new ideas in every single area of its work. Receptivity, initiative, transdisciplinary thinking and unconventionality are traits we cherish and welcome in studies, research and teaching, but also in knowledge transfer and entrepreneurial ventures, to which the university provides special support. We aspire to develop, validate and implement ideas – even if they are not yet in the mainstream.
The University of Kassel has an unconventional profile with fields of expertise in nature, technology, fine arts and society. Technical and social questions relating to the future of our planet as well as fine arts and design are characteristic of our profile in both research and teaching. With about 25,000 students and approximately 1,600 scholars, among them about 300 professors, the University of Kassel along with its School of Art and Design is one of Germany’s mid-sized universities.
