The UniKassel supports international students in their preparation for study abroad stay at the Universität Kassel by offering a multimedia online portal including a number of components.
The timeline feature offers a systematic checklist to accompany students through programmable pre-departure activities, starting with the application, through questions concerning passports and visas, to arrival in Kassel. This checklist is customizable by organization, including the fixing of group departure dates and including activities specific to a student's enrolled group.
In cooperation with the resident director and other program staff, students following this timeline may be confident that they will get done what they need to get done on time and in the right way to insure that nothing will get in their way to a successful year abroad.
Editors of the exchange programs can configure the tasks and their sequence.
UniKassel-Content describes everyday and university life, offers information about Germany and the city of Kassel, and useful hints for living in the new cultural environment. UniKassel-Content includes a search / translate function.
The tasks on the timeline are linked to the UniKassel-Content and other resources, visible in the right-hand column, and are attractively illustrated.
The UniKassel-German layer offers online lessons in German vocabulary and communication skills at the intermediate level to prepare the students for everyday communication at the host university and in Kassel.
UniKassel-Management allows different exchange programs to configure the application for their specific groups of users, including the selection of relevant topics and contact information for their particular program.
These components are integrated costomizable so that users experience a personalized working environment.
