Dr Tanja Reiffenrath works in the International Teaching Development department at Göttingen International, the University of Göttingen’s International Office. She advises and supports teaching staff across all faculties on the internationalisation of curricula. Within the European Higher Education Alliance ENLIGHT, she is responsible for the further development of international teaching programmes and their integration into the curriculum. This keynote takes the concept of ‘Internationalisation at Home’ as its starting point and explores the added value of systematically integrating international and intercultural perspectives into degree programmes. It also addresses common preconceptions and uses brief examples to illustrate key factors for success.

Ein Workshop von Cathrin Paulsen und Dr. Thorsten Aichele, ZBL
Auf die Plätze, fertig, hybrid! Ein Teil der Studierenden befindet sich spontan im Ausland und der CHARM-EU-High-Tech Seminarraum für hybride Lehre ist gerade nicht verfügbar. Doch auch hierfür lassen sich Lösungen finden. Denn manchmal fällt die Entscheidung für die hybride Lehre spontan und nicht immer ist dann noch eine perfekte Vorbereitung möglich. Wir erarbeiten gemeinsam praktische Lösungen, die uns synchron-hybride Lehre auch im Blanko-Seminarraum ermöglichen. Was sind sinnvolle methodische Vorüberlegungen? Welche technischen Hilfsmittel brauchen wir und wo bekommen wir sie her?
max. 20 Teilnehmende, der Workshop wird auf Deutsch gehalten.
Sie können vor Ort im Z6 oder online teilnehmen.
Ein Workshop von Christian Baumann, Referat A.3 - Bereich Studiengangentwicklung
Double-Degree-Programme (DDPs) bieten Studierenden die Möglichkeit, internationale Studienerfahrungen mit einem gemeinsam bzw. abgestimmt erworbenen Studienabschluss zu verbinden. Gleichzeitig stellen sie Hochschulen und Studiengangverantwortliche vor besondere organisatorische, rechtliche und konzeptionelle Herausforderungen. Im ersten Teil werden die grundlegenden Voraussetzungen und Prozesse für die Entwicklung eines DDPs vorgestellt – von den konzeptionellen Überlegungen über die vertragliche Ausgestaltung bis hin zur Einbindung in den Studiengang. Im zweiten Teil steht die Praxis im Mittelpunkt: Anhand eines Best-Practice-Beispiels aus dem Masterstudiengang “Adult Education and Management in Lifelong Education” (M.A.) schildern Prof.in Dr. Regina Egetenmeyer und Tommaso Caraccioli Erfolgsfaktoren, Herausforderungen und Lösungsansätze aus der konkreten Zusammenarbeit mit internationalen Partnerhochschulen. Im anschließenden Austausch haben die Teilnehmenden Gelegenheit, eigene Fragen und Überlegungen einzubringen und gemeinsam zu diskutieren.
Sie sind herzlich eingeladen, Projektideen, Fragen, Themen etc. bereits im Vorfeld in Form einer Ideenskizze an die Studiengangentwicklung unter studiengangentwicklung@uni-wuerzburg.de zu übersenden.
Nähere Informationen zum DDP an der JMU finden Sie hier: https://www.uni-wuerzburg.de/qm/studiengangentwicklung/internationalisierung-und-studiengangentwicklung/double-degree-programme/
Der Workshop richtet sich an Personen, die ein Double-Degree-Programm planen oder in Erwägung ziehen
Die Hauptsprache des Worlshops ist Deutsch.
Sie können in Präsenz im Z6 teilnehmen (max. 15 Teilnehmende)
Workshop by Dr. Lisa Breitschwerdt, Dr. Jörg Schwarz & Kilian Troidl, M.A., Professorship for Adult and Continuing Education, University of Würzburg
Attracting international students to degree programmes in Germany and successfully integrating them into what are, for them, new academic processes and a different everyday university life, presents challenges at various levels: for programme coordinators, the administration, teaching staff and fellow students. In this workshop, we will focus on the first steps in the ‚student life cycle’ with insights to our experiences with onboarding processes based on the master’s programme in ‘Adult Education and Management in Lifelong Education’. We will address “onboarding” as support in a multi-stage transition process ranging from targeted marketing through guided enrolment to the orientation week and, finally, the first classroom sessions. Especially in international study programmes, we consider these initial steps to be crucial for the subsequent student life cycle, all the way to successful graduation and entry into the labour market. In addition to providing an opportunity to exchange experiences, the workshop aims to discuss the concerns and questions raised by the workshop participants in depth and across different participant groups, in an open and interactive format.
The workshop will be held flexibly in English and/or German, depending on the participants’ needs.
A short 5-min-questionnaire about the interests and the language preference will be sent in advance.
You can attend at the Z6.
