Students, KICK-OFF
What actually is HONOUR?

Students who are identified by outstanding academic achievements, special social commitment or above-average motivation are to be sponsored by the HONOUR program.

In the HONOUR program, support is defined as the promotion of interdisciplinary cross-sectional competencies, so-called future skills, i.e. skills that are becoming increasingly important for professional life and social participation, such as judgment, sustainability and reflection competencies, the ability to collaborate and work in a team.

Mathematics Alignment Courses

Every year in the winter semester, we offer all students at the Hochschule Niederrhein the opportunity to take part in the mathematics alignment courses. In seminars and coordinated tutorials, we repeat and practice the foundations courses of mathematics with you, from algebra, geometry, power calculations, and curve discussions to analytical geometry.

The content is based on your programme subject, but should be seen as a supplement and does not anticipate programme content. Active and regular participation will help improve your academic success in mathematics.

All Math Alignment Courses

Tutoring Program

Tutors support teaching education in all faculties at the university and accompany students as they embark on their studies. In order to avoid "jumping in at the deep end", they are methodically and didactically prepared for their assignment in the university-wide tutor program. This qualification also offers the opportunity to acquire the certificate for tutors.

The individual seminars in the tutoring program are tailored to the corresponding target groups. For example, first-semester tutors are trained with regard to a successful introductory week; subject tutors receive valuable methodological-didactic tips regarding the design of their subject tutorials. Repetitors acquire important tools for advising and accompanying learning groups. An exchange of experiences among each other is guaranteed in every seminar.
