The International House was established by the Executive Board in June 2018. Its aim is to increase the visibility of TU Braunschweig’s international activities, provide them with more targeted support, and promote them strategically.
The orientation and future organisational structure of the International House are currently under development. By September of 2019, all the departments of the International House should have relocated to a single location at Bültenweg 74/75.
The Internationalisation Committee
The Internationalisation Committee is a steering committee concerned with all aspects of internationalisation at TU Braunschweig. It provides a central platform for exchanges of information and facilitates strategic planning and the coordination of internationalisation topics across departments and disciplines. It advises the Senate, the Executive Board and all members of our university on questions concerning internationalisation, and offers support for specific project plans.
The Internationalisation Committee meets twice each semester for working sessions and once a year for a closed conference. Ideas, suggestions and new projects are always welcome! Please contact the designated person below.
