The human rights course and/or other courses might be of interest for you or academics connected to your organisation. Please feel free to distribute this information among colleagues and academics. With kind regards, Carola Schmidt Academic Training Association *** INTERNATIONAL WINTER UNIVERSITY MACEDONIA 2005 - APPLY TO TEACH International teaching faculty are invited to apply to teach at the International Winter University Macedonia (IWUM 2005) from 17 to 28 January 2005. If interested, please visit www.academictraining.org to apply online. Nine visiting professors together with nine co-professors from Macedonia will provide an equal number of (ECTS-graded) winter courses in the disciplines of Law, Economics, Business Administration, and Public Administration. Twenty students are admitted to each two-week course. Most of them are originating from one of the three participating Macedonian universities. Additionally, forty-five international students, mostly from South East Europe, will participate. Visiting professors are provided with a budget to purchase reading materials and teaching equipment. Courses are in English. Recreational activities provide ample opportunity to meet in an informal setting. Also public forums on issues such as the Ohrid Agreement and the Bologna Process are organised. Additionally, as part of the project, short one-week study visits for professors from Macedonia to universities abroad will be organised. These visits enable the visiting and co-professors to design their course and syllabus together. Furthermore, the project includes a workshop and training programme for local faculty, contributing to the project's overall aim to foster inter-university co-operation within Macedonia, while improving the quality of higher education in Macedonia and accelerating its integration into the European Higher Education Area. Visiting professors teach voluntarily. Professors receive a modest allowance of 15 Euros per day. Travel expenses are reimbursed and free accommodation is provided. Visiting professors affiliated to universities in EU member states have priority. More information, a list of courses suggested, and application forms can be obtained online at www.academictraining.org.
