UNILEAD Programme for International Students at University of Oldenburg, Germany

Information on the Intensive Blended Learning Programme UNILEAD 

(University Leadership and Management Training Course) in Germany

The German Academic Exchange  Service (DAAD)  and  the  Carl von Ossietzky  University of Oldenburg in Germany  are jointly  organising an intensive Higher Education Management Training Course (UNILEAD) in Oldenburg, bringing together the topics Project Management, Management of Financial Re sources and Management of Human Resources with individual and practice-oriented change projects of each participant.

In 2008 the University of Oldenburg developed the programme together with the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University (South Africa) and the DAAD.  UNILEAD  is  part of the DIES programme (Dialogue on Innovative Higher Education Strategies), which has been jointly coordinated by the DAAD and HRK (German Rectors’Conference) since 2001.

Course Contents and Methodology 

The course covers topics with relevance to Higher Education Management in the following three areas:

• 1st module: Project Management
• 2nd module: Management of Financial Resources
• 3rd module: Management of Human Resources

The methodology will be strictly practice orientated and is based on case studies or questions derived from the particular job situation of the participants.  Thus, it is expected to bring in personal experience and to share this knowledge with the group of around 25  participants from different regions of the world. High personal motivation, the willingness to get actively involved during the online and contact  phases and English language skills on an advanced level are essential for the successful completion of this course.

The professional training course combines online and contact  phases in a Blended Learning approach:  Prior  to the first contact phase,  an online phase of 8-10 weeks is scheduled in which the participants are asked to read the study material and to work on short papers, including the draft of a project action plan. These papers are meant to describe the individual work experience at the home university and to identify problems and obstacles referring to the topics of the course.  The initial contact phase will be organised in September 2013  at the University of Oldenburg in Germany. During these three weeks, content will focus on Project Management and Management of Financial Resources. Also,  the personal action plans will be adjusted and fine-tuned.  Between September 2013 and February 2014,  participants are asked to apply the skills acquired at the home university within  their  individual projects. In this, they are being accompanied and  monitored by distance coaches.  Finally, during the  two-week  contact phase of the last module  in February 2014  in Oldenburg,  there will be the opportunity to reflect on the implementation of the individual projects and to discuss on next steps.  Content of inputs will focus on Management of Human Resources.

Partners’ Profile 

The University of Oldenburg is the academic coordinator of this course and works closely together with the
DAAD. The University of Oldenburg  has been  offering an innovative MBA programme in Education
Management for professionals of German speaking (Higher) Education Institutions  for  several years. Thus, it has a wide network of experts who act as lecturers in this MBA programme and provides in-depth experience in the field of  Continuing  Education  and Education Management as well as  training of professionals at an academic level.

5 Kota Paling Diminati untuk Lanjutkan Studi

Apa yang menjadi pertimbangan Anda untuk memilih kota tujuan untuk melanjutkan pendidikan tinggi di negeri seberang? Salah satunya, tentu saja tak hanya kualitas pendidikan tinggi yang ditawarkan, tetapi juga suasana dan kebijakan lingkungannya.

Lima kota di bawah ini tercatat sebagai kota tujuan studi yang paling diminati untuk menuntut ilmu. Beberapa kota memang kerap menjadi target para pencari beasiswa atau para siswa yang haus pengalaman belajar di luar negeri. Namun, sisanya patut dipertimbangkan juga untuk menjadi target berikutnya.

1. Paris
Paris menjadi sasaran para siswa untuk meneruskan studi disebabkan biaya kuliah yang lebih murah

Shutterstock

dibandingkan dengan kota-kota yang ada di negara lain. Bahkan, biaya kuliah di Perancis, termasuk Paris, ditanggung oleh pemerintah selama berada di universitas ataupun institusi negeri.

Tidak hanya itu, lingkungan di Paris juga mendorong orang untuk terus berkreasi, khususnya jika memilih jurusan seni, sastra, atau film. Salah satu universitas yang terkenal dan kerap disebut sebagai altar pendidikan terdapat di Paris, yaitu Sorbonne.

2. London
Meski biaya pendidikan yang cukup mahal, London tetap diminati oleh banyak orang yang ingin melanjutkan pendidikan tinggi. Pasalnya, berbagai universitas yang memiliki peringkat bagus di dunia banyak terdapat di London, seperti University College London dan London School of Economics and Political Science.

Kota yang dijuluki "The Big Smoke" ini juga menjadi tempat yang cocok bagi orang yang bercita-cita untuk berkecimpung di dunia usaha. Salah satu yang menjadi keunggulan universitas di London adalah perpustakaan kelas dunia yang lengkap sehingga membantu mahasiswa.

3. Boston
Kota yang satu ini tak diragukan lagi telah menggelitik minat para calon mahasiswa dari berbagai belahan dunia untuk datang melanjutkan studi, termasuk calon mahasiswa dari Indonesia. Sebut saja Harvard atau Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) yang menjadi dua universitas terbaik di dunia ini berada di Boston.

Selain lingkungan yang mendukung untuk belajar, berbagai pilihan jurusan berkualitas tersedia di kota yang kaya akan kisah-kisah sejarah ini. Sayangnya, biaya pendidikan di kota ini memang terbilang mahal. Namun, biasanya, tiap universitas membuka kesempatan bagi mahasiswa internasional untuk mengajukan bantuan finansial.

4. Melbourne
Di antara kota yang ada di Australia, Melbourne merupakan tujuan calon mahasiswa yang paling populer. Di kota ini, berdiri Melbourne University yang memang menjadi target banyak pelajar di dunia.

"Kota yang tak pernah tidur" ini memberikan kesempatan besar bagi para mahasiswa yang ingin langsung bekerja setelah selesai menjalankan pendidikan. Melbourne cocok untuk para pencinta film yang ingin memperdalam ilmu seputar film atau sinematografi.

5. Vienna
Daya tarik Wina bagi para calon mahasiswa adalah biaya kuliah yang cukup rendah dibandingkan kota di negara lain. Padahal, universitas yang ada di Vienna merupakan universitas yang memiliki ranking terbaik di dunia, seperti Universitas Wien dan Technische Universitat Wien.

Bagi yang ingin mengambil jurusan teknik dan jurusan musik serta seni, ibu kota Republik Austria ini adalah pilihan yang sangat tepat. Pasalnya, lingkungan di kota ini kaya akan pertunjukan seni berkualitas dan galeri yang banyak menampilkan karya seni kelas dunia.
