Further education programmes

Research focus

Within the transfer service, the Further Education Centre (ZfW) is involved in research contexts and is regionally networked in the field of lifelong learning. Some scientific continuing education programmes were developed as part of research projects. The Further Education Centre ZfW is currently involved in the new research programme of the Energy Research Centre of Lower Saxony (EFZN) "Transformation of the Lower Saxony Energy System" (TEN.efzn; 2024-2029) and in "ko:nect with us - The Continuing Education Network", a regional network of continuing education stakeholders working to improve the framework conditions for continuing education. It was created in the research project Kooperative Weiterbildung SüdOstNiedersachsen (2021-2027).

Our services for academic further education

Academic degree programmes and their modules, like undergraduate degree programmes, are supported centrally by TU Braunschweig and its faculties. The Further Education Centre supports the establishment, organisation and quality assurance of the courses. The faculty is responsible for the respective degree and the university committees (Commission for Accreditation and Studies (KAS)) are involved in the establishment of such courses.

Further information on the concept for further education at TU Braunschweig can be found under further education "at your demand". This concept was developed by the Vice President for Studies and Cooperation in collaboration with the Further Education Centre and approved by the TU Braunschweig Executive Board in June 2016.

The Further Education Centre is a long-standing institutional member of the German Association for Continuing Education and Distance Learning DGWF.
