Paths are created by the fact that we walk them. (Franz Kafka)

As students of German Studies, we are pleased to be able to share our contributions about the German Studies program in Kassel here. This content is the result of a project work in the seminar "New Media and Text Design in the Digital Web" in SoSe 2019.

The semester's questions included: "What different categories of Internet offerings are there?", "What is a blog?", "What characteristics do blogs often have?".

After the research and newly acquired knowledge, we also considered creating a blog that could allow us to engage more directly in conversation with those interested. But then a page on the website of the University of Kassel seemed more practical and effective, especially since the content should be about studying on site.

Well, what should the concrete contents be? That was certainly one of our biggest hurdles. Sure, it had to have something to do with the university; only who reads any hidden seminar papers by students on the university site? Those closest to us were prospective students and first-year students.

So we put together a small collection of topics - certainly without claiming to be complete - with things worth knowing, such as which skills are needed for which field of study. For those who want to know what they might be getting into, discussed a few more clichés about the courses of study. And for the newcomers to Kassel, we added a bit of culture.
