[Edling] Remote University teacher

[Gogolin via Edling]

Dear colleagues,

have you ever tried to approach respective funding associations - e.g. 
the German Exchange Service ? 
https://www2.daad.de/deutschland/studienangebote/international-programmes/en/

 From a European perspective, I am a bit surprised about this conversation.

Good luck and kind regards,

Ingrid Gogolin
