The UTQ track is intended for lecturers and assistant professors (UD) who wish to obtain a university teaching qualification. In the training courses we work in a focused manner on helping lecturers achieve the 23 final requirements. 

In addition to covering background information and results from recent research on education, we will also use the sessions to focus on practical exercises. In between sessions, you are asked to complete practical assignments in your own department, and in this way immediately bring what you have learnt into practice.

Please note that the mandatory UTQ courses are fully booked; you will be placed on a waiting list.
