For the first time, the Association of Friends and Sponsors of Technische Universität Dresden (GFF) is calling for nominations for a teaching award honoring teaching and learning at TU Dresden that has been conceptualized by student groups and initiatives in the 2021/2022 academic year.

The joint design of teaching activities by lecturers and students is a key interest of our university and an integral part of TU Dresden's teaching mission statement. Therefore, we want to honor student commitment to teaching with a dedicated teaching award. The total amount of prize money to be awarded is EUR 5,000.

The award is conferred for:

• courses developed by students or joint student projects that are integrated into TUD's program in the long term
• outstanding student involvement in teaching activities
• particularly innovative/creative/participative teaching designed by students
• outstanding student involvement in projects with school children

Members of all groups at TU Dresden are eligible to submit nominations. The award can be conferred to individuals or groups of individuals. You can submit your nominations to the Executive Board of the Association of Friends and Sponsors of TU Dresden via email at  or using directly the website until August 31, 2022.
