Information for Sponsors
The Deutschlandstipendium is funded half by the federal government and half by private donors. A full scholarship for one year can already be enabled with €1,800, which is doubled by federal funds.
Donors make a direct contribution to supporting young talent and strengthen the connection between university, business, and society. They accompany students on their journey and help foster future specialists and leaders.
A contribution is possible either by covering an annual scholarship or through individual donations.
