Customized Programs

The TUM Institute for LifeLong Learning offers a variety of individual solutions for both organizations who would like to train a group of employees and unversities from abroad who would like to send a group of delegates to Munich for trainings. In either way, the curricula is carefully developed based on the needs of the group and in close cooperation between our program management, the academic experts and the client’s representative. Our portfolio reaches from interactive lectures with TUM researchers and those of our partner institutions, guest speakers from the industry side as well as company visits and social events.

Customized Programs for Organizations

When developing customized programs for corporate partners, we rely on long-term partnerships with companies. All programs are designed to take place more than once to educate managers or experts to foster cultural change within the organization. We spend a considerable amount of time discussing the needs of the organization as well as those of the target group, i.e. we meet with different stakeholders to collect different perspectives.

All our customized programs are tailor-made according to your organizational needs and wishes. Participation options have also been adapted to the latest developments. Not only are blended learning formats available (in which virtual and on-site modules complement each other), but also purely virtual programs have been implemented by the team of the TUM Institute for LifeLong Learning.

In the early stages of program design, we work closely with the content-specific expert professors to guarantee high-quality content and inclusion of the latest research results. After designing the curriculum, we have check-up calls with each professor and the customer to ensure that the detailed content of the program meets their requirements. To ensure a close link with the organization’s perspective, we invite top management to be part of the program, e.g. as lecturers or evening guests.

Best Practice from Science and Business

As digitalization changes the world, it’s more important than ever to understand and display positive leadership behavior. That’s why we teamed up with Infineon Technologies AG. Infineon developed clear principles for successful leadership, but needed help disseminating them throughout their organization. TUM provided a solution through a complex, but easy to use app. First, candidates needed to fill out a “Leadership Profile” which provided them with information on their individual strengths and development areas and identifies potential with regard to the Leadership Principles. Managers then used TUM’s digital coaching app, which encouraged continued self-reflection and development. Together, managers were able to better themselves in four key areas: theory transfer, self-reflection, feedback, and tools and techniques for implementation.

International Programs for unversities

You are planning a visit for an international delegation to Munich or Germany and want to get to know one of the leading management schools at the interface between management and technology? Then we would like to plan a program, lasting several days, for you, including lectures, company visits and (evening) sessions with practitioners from start-ups or large cooperations. Here there is the possibility to get to know different innovative facilities of the TUM and its partners.

Highlights outside of lectures include:

• Tour of the MakerSpace, the high tech workshop of UnternehmerTUM – Europeans leading Center for Innovation and Business Creation, a place, where many developers from start-ups as well as from global corporations meet and create prototypes
• Guided tour of the SuperMUC, a supercomputer running at the Leibniz-computing center in Garching near Munich
• TUfast
• BMW-world/-factory
• Cultural events (TUM research brewery, city tours, traditional Bavarian living)
• And many more
