Teach@Tübingen Programme

Teach@Tübingen Programme

The aim of the Teach@Tübingen programme is to give young international academics the opportunity to become familiar with research and teaching at a German university, and thereby to expand the number of courses given in foreign languages at the University of Tübingen.  For the teaching individuals it also offers chances to broaden research horizons and build professional ties.  T@T candidates are asked to teach classes in English for approximately two hours per week during the semester, in agreement with the Vice-Dean of Academic Affairs of the Tübingen Faculty where they are based.

Two rounds of applications are held each year; full details of the application process, deadlines and requirements can be found on the Tübingen website.

Details of previous recipients of T@T awards from MNU member universities can be found below.Further information on a number of successful candidates from 2014 can be found in the news story on the MNU website.
