Teaching Excellence Tracks

The goal of the program is to integrate content and processes of excellent research (e.g. from Clusters of Excellence, Collaborative Research Centers, DRESDEN-concept partner institutions or DFG-funded projects) in the form of elective modules in so-called Teaching Excellence Tracks in existing or newly established degree programs.
In this way, a research-guided and interdisciplinary range of courses with attractive, internationally compatible teaching-learning methods is developed for students interested in cutting-edge research. These research-focused tracks integrate the (digital) research infrastructures into teaching at TU Dresden.

The program is aimed at:

• Students who aspire to an academic career and are interested in interdisciplinary research.
• Lecturers who offer research-guided courses in order to attract early-career researchers to their fields.

The Teaching Excellence Tracks (TET) are a completely new offer, which is currently in the design phase. They will be developed individually and collaboratively; structures and content will be tailored to the needs of the researchers. Concept ideas and suggestions are always welcome. The opportunities for participation are manifold; they range from the development and implementation of research-guided, teaching-learning methods, to the development of entire research-guided modules; from dedicated committee work to course design for the implementation of the Teaching Excellence Tracks.
