2) Few spots left – register now for the 2-days workshop on intercultural communication on December 5 (9am – 6pm) + 6 (9am – 5pm), 2019
Working in international teams requires intercultural competence, awareness and solution finding in possible conflict situations. During the two days, students are given the opportunity to develop their intercultural competence, a skills set which becomes ever more useful for all professional activities and which is thus looked for by prospective employers. As the seminar is held in English, you will also improve your English language proficiency. Therefore you should bring a basic knowledge of English so as to be able to participate in discussions and group activities. "Perfect" English, however, is by no means required! The workshop is targeting German and international students who wish to embark upon a study abroad period, who are active in international student organizations, or who would simply like to improve their communication and intercultural skills.
The workshop is held by Alexia Petersen, a Canadian with multicultural background who has lived in Aachen for many years. Ms. Petersen is a highly experienced trainer and consultant in intercultural communication, working with various target groups in both universities and research institutions, and international companies.

4) AISA presents: The Technology of Inner Peace
Like outer space is governed by laws, the human mind also functions on some secret principle. Once we come to know it, we can find a technology to create a feeling of peace, joy and relaxation whenever we want!

In this interesting and interactive session, Dr. Das and Dr. Chakraborty will reveal secrets and pathways to reach that state not by chance but by choice!
When: December 2, 5pm
Where: Humboldt-Haus, Pontstraße 41

5) To all our wonderful buddies: Don’t forget to update your buddy profile ;)
From August/ September 2019 on, we are expecting numerous new international students who are looking forward to be supported by a buddy. Therefore, if you have not already done so, please send us your current status and availability (ideally by e-mail: bebuddy(a)rwth-aachen.de<mailto:bebuddy@rwth-aachen.de>) to update our database so that we can match you with one of our new freshmen. If you have already re-registered, you do not need to become active again. You can log in to edit your profile here.<https://formular.zhv.rwth-aachen.de/lip/action/invoke.do?id=Buddy> Just as a quick reminder: You can also support more than one mentee. Please note that your availability should ideally be in August / September, as this is the period during which most mentees arrive. Please also spread the word and support the BeBuddy program by recommending it to your fellow students. We always look for committed and engaged new buddies!
Have a nice rest of the week.
