A summer school will be held as part of FECT in 2026. It is aimed at students and employees of the University of Jena and the partner universities of the EC2U Alliance and is currently being planned.

The 2025 summer school took place from 21 to 25 July 2025 and dealt with the topic: ‘Mapping Diversity: Intercultural Perspectives on Language, Space and Society’.

Intercultural Competence and Communication - Courses for Self-Study

The FECT and EC2U projects aim to facilitate smoother mobility between European universities and promote intercultural collaboration among academic staff from various regions and disciplines. To support these objectives, we offer opportunities for professional development on the topics of intercultural communication and competence.

A dedicated space on the Glocal CampusExternal link provides extensive material with integrated exercises for practical self-study in intercultural communication.

Course Highlights:

  • Intercultural Communication
  • Virtual Intercultural Teams
  • Intercultural and Diversity-Sensitive Learning
