Lifelong learning at TU Dresden

TU Dresden is an educational institution for lifelong learning, anchored in the heart of society. People of all ages and walks of life who seek education benefit from the special courses and programs offered by the partner institutions, in particular the Dresden International University (DIU), which was founded on the initiative of TU Dresden. We consider science-based learning as an option for personal and professional development at every stage of life. The courses offered range from the Children's University and early study courses, continuing education master's degree programs, (micro) certificate courses, guest student options and individual, customized continuing education courses to events at the Seniors' Academy. 

Lifelong studying means understanding the university as an academic educational institution to which you can return throughout your life with ever new educational goals.
