Networking Education in Germany
21st − 23rd July 2025, Hamburg, Germany
Themed “Networking Education in Germany,” the hybrid conference aims to provide a platform to discuss teaching concepts and methodologies in German academic institutions, including universities, universities of applied sciences, and distance learning universities. This conference also aims to foster collaboration among German academic institutions and establish education-industry collaboration networks (e.g., towards preparing a future workforce with the adequate skills required by Industry 4.0, Industry 5.0, and Society 5.0 paradigms).
Hosted by the IEEE Germany Section and locally organized by Nordakademie, the conference will highlight challenges and approaches in higher education through oral presentations and posters. Workshops will also be organized to discuss and exchange recent experiences regarding online teaching, labs, and evaluations, the students’ perspectives, and the financial support for conducting research in education.
Submissions are invited, but not limited to, with the following topics:
▶ Remote Instruction: online laboratories, best practices on online courses, massive open online courses.
▶ Curriculum design: Novel activities in academic program design.
▶ Non-traditional teaching in engineering education: Artificial Intelligence, Gamification, Project-based learning.
