The University of Rostock is pleased to welcome Dr. Pham Thanh Nga from the Hanoi National University of Education (Vietnam) as part of the Mare Balticum Fellowship Program Dr. Pham Thanh is an up-and-coming scientist in the field of didactics of chemistry. Known for her innovative work in the development of STEM projects, she will contribute her expertise to an exciting project at the Department "Life-Light-Matter" at the Interdisciplinary Faculty. During her stay, which will take place from June 1 to 30, 2024, she will work closely with the Department of Chemistry to develop new teaching sequences and experiments in the STEM field (including medicine). These will be used not only in didactic teaching, but also in STEM advertising and in interdisciplinary teaching contexts.

As part of her project "Interdisciplinary International German Vietnamese Education Workshop", Dr. Pham Thanh will also offer four workshops to which all scientists at the University of Rostock who are involved in teaching STEM subjects (including medicine) will be invited:

• 06.June.2024, 1:15 pm: STEM (MINT) Education and Student's Career-oriented Development in Vietnam - Challenges and Opportunities
• 13.June.2024, 1:15 pm: Interactive teaching methods in Germany - presentation vs. problem orientation
• 20.June.2024, 1:15 pm: Experimental Approaches to Current Biological, Chemical, Physical and Medical Questions
• 27.June.2024, 1:15 pm: Development of an interactive, interdisciplinary concept for teaching and learning videos in the field of Life, Light and Matter

The Mare Balticum Fellowship Program of the University of Rostock promotes scientific exchange at the University of Rostock by inviting international researchers to spend a period of time at the University of Rostock. A total of eight fellows are expected this year. The program not only offers the opportunity to discuss new scientific methods and approaches, but also explicitly promotes interdisciplinary exchange and the further development of academic cooperation.

Further information on the Mare Balticum Fellowship Program, other fellows and their events can be found on the website of the Mare Balticum Fellowship Program.
