Thuringian fellowships for innovations in digital university teaching
In cooperation with the Stifterverband, the Thuringian Ministry of Economic Affairs, Science and Digital Society awards up to ten fellowships for innovations in digital university teaching each year. The aim of the program is to create incentives for the development and testing of digitally supported teaching and examination formats or to stimulate the curricular redesign of modules and study sections through the use of digital technologies and best-practice sharing. It promotes cross-university exchange on (digital) university teaching and the dissemination of the teaching innovations developed by networking the fellows and contributes to the consolidation of digital university teaching in the universities themselves.
The call for proposals is aimed at lecturers who work at state-funded universities in the Free State of Thuringia. The funding is intended to provide impetus for the development and testing of digitally supported teaching and examination formats or the curricular redesign of modules with the consistent use of digital technologies. Up to 50,000 euros can be applied for per fellowship. Project funding begins on October 1, 2024; the funding period ends on December 31, 2025.
The application deadline is May 15, 2024. For more details on the application conditions and funding modalities, please refer to the Website of the Stifterverband. For interested applicants we offer on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m, offers an information event (online) to provide information about the program, application modalities and selection criteria.
