Humboldt International Campus (HIC) offers various short-term programs at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin for international students. As a teacher or mentor, you can contribute your expertise and gain valuable experience in teaching classes or supervising internships.
Depending on the program, you have the opportunity to teach academic courses related to your research topics, teach German as a foreign language, lead workshops on selected themes, or offer an internship position for international students in your research project or start-up. We support you in organizing your teaching or internship offer and provide didactic guidance as well as opportunities for peer exchange through regular meetings.
On this page, you will find out how to offer a course, workshop, or internship at HIC. Visit the Humboldt International Campus webpage to learn more about our programs.
