Questions about the scholarship
The Deutschlandstipendium scholarship incentivises top performance, which our country depends on in global competition, and helps to secure the supply of skilled workers. It helps to raise the profile of universities and also strengthens cooperation in the regional environment: the federal government, sponsors and universities work together to support young people in developing their talents and enable them to concentrate fully on their studies. This also creates strong local networks that benefit Germany as a centre of science and research.
