About MaDE-for-UASs

MaDE-for-UASs (Methodology and Didactic Education for Universities of Applied Sciences) is a three-year (2024–2027) capacity-building action co-funded by the European Union under Erasmus+ CBHE, Grant Agreement No. 101179337. Coordinated by Kotebe University of Education with Dire Dawa University as co-coordinator, the consortium unites Ethiopian implementing partners and European universities of applied sciences (Hochschule Heilbronn, TH OWL, Free University of Bozen-Bolzano). The project modernises applied-science teaching through immersive didactics, dual national centres, open tools, a master-trainer cascade, and the National Resonance Group. Headline targets include 50,000+ students, about 3,000 academic staff, five or more practice-oriented courses, and about 60 master trainers.
