DAAD Visiting Professorships (previously Guest Lectureships)
Please note that this is a program FOR GERMAN UNIVERSITIES to host an international lecturer.

This program serves to strengthen the internationalization of the educational experience for scholars, host institutions and students by welcoming educators from abroad to university campuses in Germany for guest teaching assignments. The recent development of international degree programs and traditional curricula looking to infuse an international aspect provide opportunities for professors from other countries to contribute their expertise in particular subjects and teaching methods. Courses need not be taught in German.

For a list of current DAAD Visiting Professorships in Germany, see DAAD Faculty
