Once or twice a semester we would like to invite you to our great cultural evening called Internationales KulturCafé (IKC) which focuses on a particular country. IKC offers international students the opportunity to present their home country with its traditions, music, art and culinary specialties. The guests can learn a lot about the culture of the respective country and experience it up close. Each IKC evening is as colorful and diverse as the different nations present.
At our colourful international IKC Festival of Cultures (Fest der Kulturen) we celebrate with many students from FH and TU Dortmund and various international artists. With fun-filled games, live music, informative cultural country booths and tasty international food you can get to know different cultures and people from around the world.
IKC is a cooperation of the International Office and the AStA of the FH Dortmund as well as the Referat Internationales and the AStA of the TU Dortmund. At our festivals students from the FH and TU cooperate closely and create a beautiful international evening with delicious food and a diverse program!
