Prof. Dr. Ron Kikinis (B. Leonard Holman Professor of Radiology at Harvard Medical School (HMS) and founding director of the Surgical Planning Laboratory (SPL), Department of Radiology, Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston) will receive this year’s "International Excellence Award of KIT" and the "Fellowship of SCHROFF Foundation." KIT is thus honoring the internationally recognized expert in the fields of medical image processing, image-guided therapy, and biomedical informatics. In addition to the research visit, the award includes a scholarship for accompanying early-career researchers from the awardee’s group, lasting up to twelve months, as well as funding of up to 50,000 euros for carrying out a research project at the hosting institute of KIT. The award is part of the International Excellence Grants (IEG), an initiative within KIT's successful excellence university concept. The goal is to promote international collaborations in cutting-edge research and to attract international researchers to KIT.

The award ceremony is open to the public; registration by email to elena.pfeifer@kit.edu by February 5, 2026, is required.

On February 11, 2026, Eucor will once again be offering information on cross-border studies in the foyer of the Mensa am Adenauerring.

Join IScO for a guided visit to Hotel Silber in Stuttgart, a place of remembrance with a permanent exhibition on the history of policing, the Gestapo and persecution. The building was already used as a police site during the Weimar Republic. Under National Socialism, it became a key location connected to the Gestapo, from which surveillance, repression and persecution were coordinated, affecting many people in Württemberg and Hohenzollern and beyond. After 1945, the building continued to be used by the police, and its later history also raises complex questions about continuity, accountability and remembrance.
Today, the exhibition traces both breaks and continuities from the Weimar Republic through the Nazi dictatorship and into the post war period. Using documents, photographs and media stations, it examines how democratic institutions could be undermined so rapidly, how authorities and individuals became involved in state violence, and how the role and self understanding of the police shifted across dictatorship and democracy. The exhibition also preserves personal traces from the site, including inscriptions left by prisoners and objects that reflect the repression of everyday life and youth culture at the time.
As part of our visit, we will take part in a 1.5 hour guided tour titled Police and Genocide in Europe. The tour starts at 1 PM and looks at the role of the Württemberg Gestapo and Criminal Police in the persecution and deportation of Jews as well as Sinti and Roma from Württemberg and Hohenzollern, and at how staff connected to Hotel Silber were deployed in other parts of Europe. It also explores individual responsibilities and the consequences for those who were targeted. The tour is designed to support learning and reflection in a respectful setting.

Every degree program has certain rules. Being familiar with them can be very helpful, for example, in finding the right lectures. Or it can be important if your studies are not going as you had hoped.

What does KIT require in order for you to receive a bachelor's or master's degree? What is KIT's role in this? At what points in your studies might it become difficult to continue studying? So what should you pay attention to?  
In the second part, you will learn specifically how you can use these regulations to create your timetable. A student will explain the university's own Campus Management Systems and Ilias programs, which you can use together with the module handbook to organize your studies. The student will also inform you
what you need to pay attention to and where you are free to make your own decisions. Here you can also share your experiences with each other. We will help you with specific cases.
 
In the third part, we would like to draw your attention to important places at KIT where you can get various kinds of help with your studies.
 
The event will be held in English and, if necessary, in German.
