Full-Time | 1 Year Initi­al­ly | Munich | Start­ing date: Sep­tem­ber 2026 or later

Do you want to shape the future of engi­nee­ring and tech­no­lo­gy edu­ca­ti­on on a glo­bal stage?

Who We Are

TUM Inter­na­tio­nal GmbH (TUMint) is the inter­na­tio­nal arm of the Tech­ni­cal Uni­ver­si­ty of Munich (TUM), Europe’s lea­ding tech­ni­cal uni­ver­si­ty. Tog­e­ther with visio­na­ry part­ners from aca­de­mia, indus­try, and the public sec­tor, we build new edu­ca­ti­on and inno­va­ti­on hubs around the world.

TUMint brings the strength of the Munich eco­sys­tem — rese­arch excel­lence, start­ups, glo­bal cor­po­ra­tes, and public insti­tu­ti­ons — into our pro­jects. Our work is inter­di­sci­pli­na­ry and fast-moving, deli­ve­ring world-class tech­no­lo­gy edu­ca­ti­on pro­gram­mes and inno­va­ti­on hubs that crea­te las­ting impact in emer­ging and high-growth mar­kets.

What We Do

Our pro­jects span from desig­ning and laun­ching new edu­ca­tio­nal pro­gram­mes at part­ner uni­ver­si­ties, to buil­ding inno­va­ti­on eco­sys­tems, sup­port­ing tech­no­lo­gy entre­pre­neur­ship, and deve­lo­ping insti­tu­tio­nal capa­ci­ty in our part­ner count­ries.

Our cur­rent port­fo­lio includes more and more initia­ti­ves in Bio­in­for­ma­tics and Bio­me­di­cal Engi­nee­ring — with a strong focus on regi­ons whe­re TUM’s exper­ti­se can have trans­for­ma­ti­ve impact. We work clo­se­ly with govern­ments, uni­ver­si­ties, and indus­try part­ners to ensu­re our pro­gram­mes are aca­de­mi­cal­ly rigo­rous, prac­ti­cal­ly rele­vant, and built to last.

The Role

We’re loo­king for a tech­ni­cal­ly strong, inter­na­tio­nal­ly min­ded expert to con­tri­bu­te to TUMint’s edu­ca­ti­on pro­jects. This isn’t a purely admi­nis­tra­ti­ve role — it calls for deep domain know­ledge and the abili­ty to enga­ge cre­di­bly with aca­de­mic con­tent, facul­ty, and cur­ri­cu­lum design, while navi­ga­ting the chal­lenges of buil­ding high-qua­li­ty pro­gram­mes in com­plex, cross-cul­tu­ral envi­ron­ments.

You’ll work across mul­ti­ple pro­jects and the­mes, con­tri­bu­ting your exper­ti­se whe­re it mat­ters most: sha­ping pro­gram­me con­tent, asses­sing aca­de­mic qua­li­ty, buil­ding part­ner capa­ci­ty, and pro­mo­ting tech­no­lo­gy entre­pre­neur­ship.

Your Tasks

Edu­ca­ti­on Pro­gram­me Deve­lo­p­ment

• Con­tri­bu­te to the design, deve­lo­p­ment, and con­ti­nuous impro­ve­ment of Bachelor’s and Master’s pro­gram­mes in Bio­in­for­ma­tics and Bio­me­di­cal Engi­nee­ring at part­ner insti­tu­ti­ons world­wi­de.
• Review and advi­se on cur­ri­cu­lum con­tent, lear­ning out­co­mes, and assess­ment frame­works to ensu­re ali­gnment with TUM’s aca­de­mic stan­dards.
• Sup­port the pre­pa­ra­ti­on and onboar­ding of part­ner uni­ver­si­ty facul­ty, inclu­ding work­shops, trai­ning ses­si­ons, and tea­ching mate­ri­als.

Capa­ci­ty Buil­ding

• Deve­lop and deli­ver capa­ci­ty-buil­ding pro­gram­mes for aca­de­mic staff and insti­tu­tio­nal lea­ders at part­ner uni­ver­si­ties.
• Iden­ti­fy gaps in tech­ni­cal and pedago­gi­cal exper­ti­se at part­ner insti­tu­ti­ons and design tar­ge­ted inter­ven­ti­ons to address them.
• Sup­port part­ners in buil­ding the insti­tu­tio­nal struc­tures, pro­ces­ses, and cul­tu­re nee­ded for sus­tainable, high-qua­li­ty engi­nee­ring edu­ca­ti­on.

Tech­no­lo­gy Entre­pre­neur­ship & Inno­va­ti­on

• Con­tri­bu­te to TUMint pro­jects that pro­mo­te tech­no­lo­gy entre­pre­neur­ship, start­up eco­sys­tems, and inno­va­ti­on cul­tu­re in part­ner insti­tu­ti­ons and count­ries.
• Help design and deli­ver pro­gram­mes that con­nect engi­nee­ring stu­dents and gra­dua­tes with indus­try, entre­pre­neur­ship, and real-world pro­blem sol­ving.
• Draw on TUM’s net­work of rese­arch insti­tu­tes, incu­ba­tors, and cor­po­ra­te part­ners to enrich TUMint’s pro­gram­mes.

Pro­ject Con­tri­bu­ti­on & Coor­di­na­ti­on

• Work col­la­bo­ra­tively within TUMint’s pro­ject teams, con­tri­bu­ting tech­ni­cal exper­ti­se to pro­ject plan­ning, part­ner dia­lo­gue, and qua­li­ty assu­rance.
• Prepa­re tech­ni­cal inputs for reports, pro­po­sals, pre­sen­ta­ti­ons, and part­ner com­mu­ni­ca­ti­ons.
• Repre­sent TUMint at part­ner mee­tings, aca­de­mic events, and inter­na­tio­nal con­fe­ren­ces as requi­red.

What We Are Looking For

Academic Background

The fol­lo­wing aca­de­mic back­ground is requi­red — we’re only able to con­sider appli­ca­ti­ons that meet the­se cri­te­ria:

• Master’s degree (MSc) in one of the fol­lo­wing disci­pli­nes: Bio­in­for­ma­tics |   Bio­me­di­cal Engi­nee­ring. Cur­rent mas­ter stu­dents may also be con­side­red.
• TUM gra­dua­tes are espe­ci­al­ly wel­co­me to app­ly. Fami­lia­ri­ty with TUM’s aca­de­mic cul­tu­re, stan­dards, and values is a genui­ne advan­ta­ge in this role.
• Pro­ven expe­ri­ence in aca­de­mic pro­gram­me manage­ment, inter­na­tio­nal edu­ca­ti­on, or a clo­se­ly rela­ted field (desi­red).
• Demons­tra­ted abili­ty to mana­ge com­plex, mul­ti-stake­hol­der pro­jects across dif­fe­rent orga­ni­sa­ti­ons and cul­tures.
• Excel­lent com­mand of Eng­lish (working lan­guage of the pro­gram­me); know­ledge of Ger­man is an advan­ta­ge.

Expe­ri­ence

• Expe­ri­ence in an aca­de­mic, rese­arch, or tech­ni­cal edu­ca­ti­on envi­ron­ment — you under­stand how uni­ver­si­ties work from the insi­de.
• Expo­sure to cur­ri­cu­lum deve­lo­p­ment, pro­gram­me design, or aca­de­mic qua­li­ty assu­rance is a strong advan­ta­ge.
• Expe­ri­ence working in or with inter­na­tio­nal con­texts — cross-cul­tu­ral col­la­bo­ra­ti­on, inter­na­tio­nal pro­jects, or time spent abroad.
• Any back­ground in tech­no­lo­gy entre­pre­neur­ship, inno­va­ti­on eco­sys­tems, or start­up envi­ron­ments is a plus.

Skills & Attri­bu­tes

• Deep tech­ni­cal know­ledge in your disci­pli­ne — you can enga­ge with facul­ty and cur­ri­cu­lum con­tent at a peer level.
• Clear, con­fi­dent com­mu­ni­ca­tor in Eng­lish; Ger­man is a strong advan­ta­ge, and addi­tio­nal lan­guages are wel­co­me.
• Ana­ly­ti­cal­ly sharp and detail-ori­en­ted, with the abili­ty to assess aca­de­mic con­tent cri­ti­cal­ly and con­s­truc­tively.
• Col­la­bo­ra­ti­ve team play­er who can also work inde­pendent­ly and take owner­ship of tasks.
• Com­for­ta­ble with inter­na­tio­nal tra­vel and working across dif­fe­rent cul­tu­ral and insti­tu­tio­nal con­texts.
• Moti­va­ted by mis­si­on — you belie­ve that access to excel­lent engi­nee­ring edu­ca­ti­on can chan­ge count­ries, not just care­ers.

Why Join TUMint?

• Work at the inter­sec­tion of one of the world’s top tech­ni­cal uni­ver­si­ties and some of the most dyna­mic edu­ca­ti­on reform initia­ti­ves glo­bal­ly.
• A role with genui­ne tech­ni­cal depth — your exper­ti­se will direct­ly shape the qua­li­ty of pro­gram­mes that thou­sands of stu­dents will expe­ri­ence.
• An inter­na­tio­nal, diver­se, and mis­si­on-dri­ven team that moves fast and takes qua­li­ty serious­ly.
• Expo­sure to a wide port­fo­lio of pro­jects across dif­fe­rent count­ries, disci­pli­nes, and part­ner­ship models.
• Munich as your base — one of Europe’s most inno­va­ti­ve cities, with direct access to TUM’s rese­arch and entre­pre­neur­ship eco­sys­tem.
• Com­pe­ti­ti­ve com­pen­sa­ti­on and the pro­fes­sio­nal envi­ron­ment of a TUM-affi­lia­ted insti­tu­ti­on.
