Its a great program and you can get the certificate for Integration and Diversity at the University of Göttingen: http://www.uni-goettingen.de/en/108275.html Just register and find a match within the MES group and get a certificate for something what is part of your daily business as MES student anyways?!

Dear MES students! Today is my last working day as a coordinator of our program. I wish all of you good times in Goettingen and success in your study!

For 5th semester students from Ms. Kretschmer: Dear 5th semester students, Two sections of Scientific Writing in English are being offered: • Monday morning: 8:15 – 11:45 • Monday afternoon: 14:00 – 15:30 and Wednesday morning: 8:00 – 9:30 It would be nice if students who own a laptop/tablet would volunteer the Monday morning group as we won’t be in a computer room from 10:15 to 11:45. Please contact me at Heather.Kretschmer@zess.uni-goettingen.de by October 9 to let me know which group you wish to be in. The lists will be finalized on October 10th. Thank you in advance.

MES orientation week 2016 Changes are still possible

Dear students! Me and Dr. Anne Sennhenn (the new coordinator) ask you about some help with the MES orientation week. Presentations will take 3 days. On 10.10 (Monday) - until 15:00; on 11.10 (Tuesday) and 12.10 (Wednesday) - until 12:00. We need help with the following tasks: - 2-3 people on Monday to accompany our new students to Mensa and for a short excursion here on campus - would be good to organise an excursion through the city (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday - ?). We can provide money for soft drinks and snacks. - should I book some place for going out in the evening (Tuesday or Wednesday, about 30 people - ?)? I have to do it this week, or it will be very problematic later. Or someone of you can take care about this? This activity can not be paid from our budget.

Dear 5th semester students, about your English course. Ms. Kretschmer asks for volunteers for the Monday class. Also, one laptop for every two students is needed for this class. For any questions, please, contact Ms. Kretschmer directly (Heather.Kretschmer@zess.uni-goettingen.de).
