First-rate teaching and superb conditions for studying - of the goals TUM has set for itself, these are among the uppermost. To this end, a variety of programs has been initiated whose extensive scope is due in no small part to TUM's success in applying for public funding as well as grants from private endowments.
With a total of €16 million in federal funding, TUM: Agenda Lehre is scheduled to run five years. In the spring of 2011, TUM was selected by the German Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) as one of the beneficiaries of Qualitätspakts Lehre, a grant aiming to optimize the conditions for studying in Germany. Launched during the winter semester of 2011/2012, the Agenda Lehre program entails numerous measures that will make a lasting contribution to the enhancement of teaching and learning at TUM. More
