There are currently 24\u00a0students, from all over the world, attending the Summer School of TU\u00a0Braunschweig<\/a>. During our international summer course, they can learn about the German language, history and culture.<\/p>\n

TU Braunschweig summer courses have a long tradition: For more than 40\u00a0years, the university has been offering four- to six-week intensive courses during the summer semester break in September\u2014they were first offered by the Language Centre and now by the International House. This year, an additional summer course will take place in June and July, which includes language courses and also a wide range of cultural and historical excursions. The extended Summer School programme is the result of talks between TU\u00a0Braunschweig and its international partners, whose students find the summer months particularly appealing for a short-term stay abroad.<\/p>\n

Professor Tatjana Schneider, TU\u00a0Braunschweig\u2019s Vice President for International Affairs and Regional Establishment, emphasises the importance of the Summer School for the University: \u201cThe allocation of student exchange places is always a subject of negotiation between two universities. The Summer School of TU\u00a0Braunschweig is an important cornerstone in this process. On the one hand, it allows students from partner universities to become familiar with our institution. On the other hand, it also opens doors for our students who wish to gain experience abroad.\u201d<\/p>\n

A great example is the longstanding cooperation between TU\u00a0Braunschweig and the University of Tennessee at Martin\u00a0(UTM). The U.S. university is a popular destination for students of English Studies in the Faculty of Humanities and Education. R\u00fcdiger Heinze, Professor of American literary and cultural studies at TU\u00a0Braunschweig, is particularly pleased that nine students from the University of Tennessee are taking part in the recent Summer School: \u201cThe international summer course is a very interesting offer for students and it also strengthens the ties with our partners. The partnership with UTM has been around for a very long time and I can see great potential for interdisciplinary development for both sides, so it\u2019s great that we can once again welcome guests from Tennessee here in Braunschweig.”<\/p>\n

Students from the USA, South Africa, Tanzania, Scotland, Denmark and Canada participate in the summer course. For the students from Africa: their trip is supported by full scholarships from the Ministry of Science and Culture of the German State of Lower Saxony, as Tanzania and the Eastern Cape Province in South Africa are partner regions of Lower Saxony.<\/p>\n

During the four- to six-week course, the students\u2019 programme features both daily German lessons and excursions and activities in the region. Joana Zimmer, Coordinator of the International Summer School at TU\u00a0Braunschweig, has put together a wide range of events: \u201cWe will visit institutes of\u00a0TU Braunschweig and nearby research facilities in order to give the students an idea of the regions\u2019 impressive research landscape. We also spend a day in Berlin, as the German capital is obviously a highlight for our participants. Additionally, there are excursions to the local area and social activities that allow everyone to get to know each other better.\u201d Zimmer is particularly excited about the fact that we can finally meet in person again this year. After the cancellation of the Summer School in 2020 and a hybrid event last year, the face-to-face exchange is a great added value for all participants.<\/p>\n

Just two weeks before the course ends, Zimmer\u2019s conclusion is quite positive: \u201cOur participants are impressed by the open-mindedness here on campus and are really enjoying this exciting time here in Braunschweig.\u201d The current summer course continues until 29 July, after which the next Summer School will start on 5 September. The course for September is already fully booked and Zimmer is looking forward to once again welcome students from all over the world to Braunschweig.<\/p>\n
