Lecture Series "Interkulturelle Begegnungen in Grenzräumen: Herausforderungen und Ressourcen" Summer term 2023
The lecture series carried out in the project "Intercultural Communication in Border Areas" (within the framework of the Cooperation Platform Europe) by Saarland University and htwsaar in the summer semester 2023 aims to show the diversity of intercultural communication in research and teaching, languages and mobility from different professional and institutional perspectives at the two Saarland university locations (incl. their international networks). The focus is mainly on the specifics of border regions, e.g. the professional, also multilingual, requirements in the German-French-Luxembourgian border region as a labor market.
On a total of 6 dates until the beginning of July, different formats will be offered for interested listeners (students and lecturers of all subjects, representatives of central institutions, etc.), which refer to "good practice examples" in teaching as well as additional qualifications in the field of intercultural communication. In addition to experts from UdS and htwsaar and external speakers, international students from the two universities will also have their say, presenting their intercultural experiences during their studies abroad and thus creating an awareness of the added value of intercultural encounters in border areas and beyond.
The series of lectures will kick off with an international panel discussion at the htw saar on 09.05.2023 with guests from the GLOBDIVES-Projekt (Erasmus+) and Transform4Europe.
Tuesday, May 9, 15.00-17.00, htw saar (Campus Rotenbühl, Aula)

Student evaluation at Saarland University and htw Saar
Current student survey at UdS and htw saar (survey period: June 30, 2022 - July 31, 2022)
What we wanted to know:
Where are the needs for the promotion of intercultural communication and intercultural competence on the part of the students?
By means of an online questionnaire, the need for intercultural competence mediation at both universities involved in the project was to be surveyed in the context of the border region and beyond. On the one hand, it was about measures for the preparation and follow-up of stays abroad as well as existing study contents with reference to intercultural communication, but on the other hand also about internationalization@home.
The questionnaire was addressed to all students of Saarland University and htwsaar and reached 169 participants (mainly from the humanities and social sciences). The results show that on the part of the students in particular a desire for more international cooperation projects prevails, while internationalization@home is not yet a concept for many students. Intercultural communication is mentioned by the majority as a central (cross-sectional) topic, which should, however, be further strengthened.
