What is Europa macht Schule?
"Europa macht Schule" (EmS) is a unique programme coordinated by the DAAD on a full-time basis, which aims to promote cultural exchange and mutual understanding between international students and school classes throughout Germany. Through creative projects and personal encounters, EmS connects young people to bring the European idea to life.

Europe meets school - bring the world into a classroom!
Our Mission
EmS supports students from all countries in interactively presenting their home culture in German classrooms. This is done as part of a 3-5 hour project, which gives the students a vivid insight into other countries and traditions.
How does it work?
International students register with EmS via the www.europamachtschule.de website and will be transferred by the DAAD to the local location team.
The site team reviews the registrations and organizes events to get to know international students and German teachers and is available to advise during the entire project period.
Project implementation: After the coordination meeting, at which teachers are matched with international students, the respective project partners coordinate with each other to jointly implement the EmS project.
Final meeting: At the end of the EmS program year, all people involved in the program at a location meet and jointly present the results of their projects.
Who can participate?
Students: International students who are enrolled in Germany and would like to bring their culture closer to German school classes.
Students of the TU Bergakademie who would like to help get in touch with international students and teachers and bring them together.
Schools: Teachers from schools throughout Germany who are open to intercultural projects and European cooperation. School classes of all ages and types of schools are allowed to participate.
Why participate?
For international students: A unique opportunity to gain valuable teaching and presentation experience while building cultural bridges and getting to know Germany better
Für students of the TU Bergakademie Freiberg: A great opportunity to expand your network, gain experience in event organization and public relations.
