Information about MINT Week

In the planning phase, we collected possible program items for the joint MINT Week of the Kassel region and invited all MINT stakeholders to actively contribute with their own offerings. 

  • The focus of the MINT Week 2023 was the connection between STEM and sustainability.
  • The MINT Week took place at all university locations in order to give all departments an equal presence.
  • Schools, companies, and institutions in the region were able to offer formats on their premises and advertise and conduct these  on their own responsibility
  • The MINT-Hub had the task of conceptualizing and managing the MINT Week as an interface between the actors.
  • With its communication channels, the university provided a platform for the promotion of all events and organized the general public relations work .
