Visiting Programming Workshop Leader (1-month)
About the Team
Learning Labs are offered on a volunteer, ad hoc basis by technology and design professionals from around the world and students from top universities. Over 100 instructors visit TUMO throughout the year to lead advanced labs and work with our students on real life hands-on projects. Each of these workshops results in a final project - a program, website, mobile app, research project, or other product.
TUMO's Level III Workshops represent an evolution of our traditional third-level workshops. These dynamic, ad hoc, project-based labs are designed to empower TUMO to deliver advanced industry skills, innovative techniques, and hands-on, real-world projects to our learners. Our primary objective is to provide a diverse array of options, emphasizing multidisciplinary, project-based learning that results in tangible outcomes. Each lab is facilitated by our highly qualified TUMO workshop leaders, alongside local industry experts and international specialists.
