Staff member mobility

Non-scientific staff members

At TUM, all employees, including those at the schools, have the opportunity to participate in Erasmus+ continuing education and training programs in other European or non-European countries.

Possible formats include study visits to partner universities, attending Staff Week, or language courses.

Specific information is available on the websites or through the TUM Horizons course “Strengthening International Skills: Stays abroad for TUM Employees”, which takes place (in German) at regular intervals.

Scientific staff members

The TUM Global & Alumni Office offers scientists and researchers various formats for establishing and maintaining international networks. Here is a selection:

  • Within the framework of Erasmus+, for example, you can receive funding for your stay abroad for teaching purposes within Europe. Research activities are also possible within this framework.
  • The international dimension of the program creates additional options for selected countries worldwide.
  • Professors and junior fellows also have the opportunity to apply for financial support through the TUM Global Incentive Fund.
  • As part of the EuroTech Alliance, the Visiting Researcher Program supports short-term stays of up to two weeks at EuroTech partner universities.
  • Through the EuroTeQ Alliance, TUM teachers can offer their courses to EuroTeQ partner students in an innovative format in the EuroTeQ course catalog at the beginning of each semester.
  • Academic staff can also go to other European or non-European countries for further education and training through the Erasmus program. However, research activities are not possible within this framework! Further education and training can take place at universities as well as at companies or private institutions.

In addition to the options mentioned above, TUM offers further funding opportunities through TUM ForTe or the TUM Graduate School.

Outside TUM, both the German Academic Exchange Service and the Bavarian Competence Centers, which were established by the Bavarian State Ministry of Science and the Arts, are important points of contact. The latter are located at various universities in Bavaria and have different areas of focus depending on the target region. If you are interested in establishing partnerships in the relevant regions, these centers may also be of interest to you:
