Lehraufenthalt in Mexico

Aditya Singh, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Mexiko. 24.04.-29.04.2023

Erasmus+ Mobility allowed me to share my experience with students and professors at Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), Mexico City, Mexico. I gave seminars about study and research opportunities in Europe (Germany), especially at Freie University Berlin, and a research seminar about my work at FU-Berlin. After the workshops, we had Q&A sessions to discuss in detail. Remarkably, participants were very interested to know about funding opportunities in Europe. I got the chance to visit many laboratories of the Physics department of UNAM. My Host Professor Dr. Gerardo García Naumis gave me a tour of the UNAM campus, which has a rich history of UNESCO World Heritage sites and UNESCO-protected murals, Olympic stadiums, etc. Interestingly, the UNAM campus is built over lava flows and has many unique sculptures.

Also, I visited many touristic places in and nearby Mexico City, especially the Teotihuacan Temples (pyramids) of the Sun and the Moon from Mesoamerican culture. Further, I explored Mexican cuisine, learned many Spanish words, and interacted with locals. Overall, it was a wonderful experience to participate in the Erasmus+ program, which allows you to share your knowledge, improve your teaching ability, experience new cultures, and establish new networks and collaborations.
