Studium Fundamentale

The Studium Fundamentale is a central component of the Bachelor's degree programme at the University of Erfurt and offers lecturers a unique opportunity to support students beyond the boundaries of their subject discipline. By designing interdisciplinary courses, you as a teacher can actively contribute to teaching key skills such as judgement, social and intercultural competence and aesthetic perception.

 

Your advantages as a lecturer:

• Interdisciplinary collaboration: In Studium Fundamentale, you will work with colleagues from other subject areas and develop innovative teaching concepts together. This enables you to broaden your own perspective and gain new impetus for your teaching.

• Creative freedom: The Studium Fundamentale offers you the freedom to develop creative and practical topics that prepare students for the complex challenges of a globalised world. You can address socially relevant issues, such as sustainability or cultural diversity.

• Promoting key skills: You will help students to think outside the box of their degree programme, to think critically and to work in an interdisciplinary manner - skills that are indispensable in today's working world.

• Practical orientation: By cooperating with non-university partners, such as in the field of sustainability, you can implement practical projects and actively involve students in real-life problems.

By designing programmes in the Studium Fundamentale, you make an important contribution to students' personal development and strengthen their ability to recognise complex interrelationships and develop innovative solutions. At the same time, you will benefit from the opportunity to further develop your own teaching and try out new didactic approaches.
