The University of Kassel - founded as an orginal model comprehensive university in 1971 as a result of educational reforms - is characterized by a multilayered competence network that is unusual in Germany, focused on nature, technology, art and society. Those who are interested in academic achievement and professional prospects in these fields will find a broad range of stimulating and challenging study and research opportunities in the University's study groups, institutes, faculties, colloquies and research centers. The University of Kassel's balanced relations within its spectrum of fields in engineering, natural sciences and mathematics on the one hand, and humanities, social sciences and the arts on the other are characteristic for its organic potential. Networking of these major subject cultures as equals offers unusual opportunities for interdisciplinary references and permits innovative cooperative arrangements. (Source: Mission Statement)
