International Summer Get-Together at the Rectorate of TU Dresden
Last Thursday, the festive hall of the Rectorate transformed into a vibrant meeting point for international guests from around the world. In a summery atmosphere, scholars from the Dresden Fellowship Program, Eleonore-Trefftz-Professors and their hosts met to establish new contacts and share experiences and impressions from their stay at TU Dresden.
Professor Ronald Tetzlaff (CTIO) and Professor Roswitha Böhm (Vice-Rector for University Culture) warmly welcomed the guests. In their speeches, both emphasized the importance of intercultural exchange and the value that international researchers bring to TU Dresden. After the official welcome, the guests quickly engaged in conversations and exchanged ideas in a relaxed atmosphere over drinks and snacks. In the group discussions, they talked about the benefits of the two funding programs as well as the challenges faced during their stay in Dresden. The open dialogue provided valuable insights and constructive ideas for the future.
A special highlight of the event was the subsequent tour of the historic campus led by Kirsten Vincenz, the Director of the Office for Academic Heritage, Scientific and Art Collections. The international guests gained insight into the architectural features of the university buildings and their development over various decades.
The Summer Get-Together offered a great platform for exchange and networking and we look forward to further meetings within TU Dresden's international community that will soon follow.
The Funding Programs
Each year, about 30 excellent scientists from various disciplines and countries visit TU Dresden through the Dresden Fellowship Program and the Eleonore-Trefftz-Program. Together with their hosts, the Fellows conduct research on current, pivotal topics, intensify international cooperation, and prepare long-term strategic projects. The Eleonore-Trefftz-Professors conduct research and teach at TU Dresden for up to 12 months and serve as role models for a scientific career for female students and researchers.
