In November 2024, the “Bremer Hochschulpreis” for excellent teaching was awarded at Bremen City Hall. The prize in the category 'Curricular Innovation and Team Teaching', endowed with 25,000 Euros, was awarded to a team from the University of Applied Sciences in Bremen, consisting of Dr. Anja Kamp, Jeremy Hookway and Prof. Dr. Stefan Veltel, for their project 'Interdisciplinary Teaching-Tandem for Internationalization@Home'.

The Bremer Hochschulpreis is awarded every two years and honors outstanding achievements in university teaching in order to highlight the importance of teaching for Bremen as a center of science

The interdisciplinary team teaching was developed in collaboration with the Language Center of the Universities in the State of Bremen (SZHB) and stemmed from the AddInno project at the University of Bremen, which is funded by the Foundation for Innovation in University Teaching. Dr. Anja Kamp and Prof. Dr. Stefan Veltel are research associates and lecturers, respectively, in the International Degree Program in Technical and Applied Biology (ISTAB) at the University of Applied Sciences in Bremen, and Jeremy Hookway is an English instructor at the Language Center of the Universities in the State of Bremen (SZHB).

Congratulations to our colleague Jeremy and the team!
