The University of Kassel views itself as a European university. It has an international focus and has networks around the world. Internationalisation plays a central role in both courses and teaching, but also in research and in the transfer of knowledge. The university laid down the principles for this in its first internationalisation concept as early as 2002. The university promises to pursue and introduce the goals of Europeanisation and internationalisation in its programmes at all levels. The university launched its fourth phase for further internationalisation in 2016.In the project of 2016 (2016-1-DE01-KA107-002854) in total 60 mobilities were supported. These mobilities consisted of 39 mobilities to Israel (18 incoming and 21 outgoing), 13 mobilities to the U.S (8 incoming and 5 outgoing) and 8 mobilities (4 incoming and 4 outgoing) to New Zealand. The following universities took part in the Erasmus+ KA107 programme: Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design, Kibbutzim College of Education, Technology & Arts, University of Green Bay, University of Maryland Baltimore County, the University of Otago and the University of Canterbury. In the scheme of student mobilities (SMS), the University of Kassel recorded 17 mobilities. Of these, 11 females and 6 males took part in the Erasmus scheme. On average, students spent 3 months and 29 days at the respective partner university. In detail, 17 students went to/came from Israel, one student, Jean Marie Carey, went to New Zealand and 4 students went to/came from the U.S. No mobilities took place of students with special needs or with children. Therefore, no additional allowances were granted. Overall, proportionally some more students from abroad took part in the Erasmus+ exchange than students from the University of Kassel. In case of staff mobilities, a distinction between teaching (STA) and training (STT) purposes is made. In general, staff mobilities constituted of 43 participating staff members. These training mobilites were mostly used for jab shadowing and co-teaching. Teaching mobilities (STA) totalled in 16 exchanges with 8 mobilities each to and from the University of Kassel. Proportionally, more training mobilities (STT) than STA mobilities were realised. In particular, 12 incoming and 15 outgoing mobilities for training purposes took place. The average staff mobility had a duration of 11 days.
