The workshop will consist of two parts:
I. Visit of European Institutions that set standards in good governance, higher education or research, such as the European Commission (European Anti-Fraud Office and Directorate General for Education and Culture), the European Research Council, and the European Parliament Committee on Education and Culture (Brussels offices).
II. Workshop in Essen, where the participants will process the obtained information in working groups as well as gain additional insight from researchers on corruption in higher education. As a result, the participants will develop recommendations (Code of conduct) for higher education institutions on how to establish a level “playing field” across all phases of higher education.
Language:
Good English knowledge is required for all participants. This has to be documented together with the application, e.g. by a certified DAAD language test, writing skills demonstrated in the application form and a Skype interview after the application.
Application:
The workshop is dedicated to young scientists and professionals in education from Germany, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine. All participants must have a completed Master degree. Applications from all subjects are welcome. We expect that each applicant will participate in the whole workshop. Applicants should not be older than 35 years. Twenty participants will be funded (5 from each country). All expenses (travel, living expenses, and accommodation in a double room) will be paid by the organizers.
The application procedure will be carried out in two steps. First applicants are asked to submit their application until 02.02.2018 (strict deadline) to fairplay2018@uni-due.de by completing the template file (Download Template Fair Play 2018) together with following documents:
