Online program "Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change"

Application for participation in the online program “Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change” open until September 16, 2025!

Osnabrück University has been a member of the International Network of Universities (INU) since April 2023. Last year, INU launched a new online program called “Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change”, which is entering its fourth round in October. The program is aimed at students of all disciplines and study cycles (Bachelor, Master and PhD) who are enrolled at an INU member university. Osnabrück University can select 10 students to participate in the October intake.

The course will be fully delivered online through a mixture of pre-recorded content, live virtual sessions, and student group work/presentation. Learning will be in collaboration with students from other INU institutions giving participants the opportunity to interact with peers from across the world. The program requires students to have a good level of English and to be ready to actively participate. Participants must also be able to take part in the 3 core sessions and 3 elective sessions over a period of 12 months. Interested students should therefore check the exact course dates / times in advance. Here is further information on the  program, the specific content and the dates.

INU issues a certificate to all students who have successfully completed the program. Students are expected to attend and actively participate in the required sessions.

Would you like to apply to participate in the online program "Global Citizenship and Sustainable Futures: Learning for Change"? Then send your application documents in English (CV, letter of motivation, current transcript of records, certificate of enrolment) by 16 September 2025 by email to Ms. Anne Bartke from the International Office: Email:  anne.bartke@uni-osnabrueck.de; Tel. 0541 969-4765.
