Intercultural Awareness Workshop

Course type: Workshop
Target group: International doctoral researchers and postdoctoral researchers
 
This workshop is designed to help you settle in here at the University of Konstanz. We want to help you to take a good start into your stay here in Konstanz. In a nice atmosphere you will have the chance to exchange intercultural experiences with your fellow students and researchers. We are going to work on specific topics dealing with intercultural interactions such as:
 
+ What is culture and how/where am I influenced by culture?
+ How to dealing with transition (culture shock)
+ Culture and the way we see the world 
+ University Culture 
 
The aim of the workshop is to make you aware of your own cultural imprint in order to be able to cope better with misunderstandings. Raising your awareness for cultural communalities will help you in intercultural interactions.
