ERASMUS+ promotes visiting lectureships at European partner universities (STA1) that hold an ERASMUS University Charter and have concluded an inter-institutional agreement with the University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar. During their stay, guest lecturers should strengthen the European dimension of the host university, supplement its range of courses and impart their specialist knowledge to those students who cannot or do not wish to study abroad. This should include the development of joint study programmes with partner universities and the exchange of teaching content and methods.
Pure teaching stays must comprise at least eight teaching hours. The University of Music FRANZ LISZT Weimar supports stays of up to 5 days. It is also possible to support teaching activities by foreign company personnel at German universities (STA2) in order to strengthen cooperation between universities and, for example, agencies, concert halls and opera houses.
