Berlin-Scholarships

The Berlin-Scholarship- Program allows international students to study for one year at Humboldt-Universitä t zu Berlin or at one of its partner institutions: Freie Universität Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin, Universität der Künste Berlin, and Fachhochschule für Wirtschaft Berlin.

Along with their studies in Berlin, the scholarship holders work together in small groups on a project. In the academic year 2007/2008 the topic is "People in Motion – Migration and Integration in Historical and Current Contexts". The project is supervised academically. The scholarship holders meet once or twice a month to
discuss and develop their project ideas.

Grant holders can carry out their study proposals within two semesters by attending courses at one of the universities in Berlin. The study proposals should be developed according to the home university's academic requirements.

The program starts on September 1 and ends on July 31.

Application requirements
Students of all fields of study may apply. We encourage students in particular from Central and Eastern Europe, the CIS-States, Israel and the USA to apply. The program is directed to students with a good proficiency in German and a special interest in the history of National Socialism. We especially encourage descendants of former
forced laborers and other victims of the National Socialist regime to apply.

Please submit a draft proposal for a project that can be accomplished within the scholarship year. Proposals should include a description of the content, plans for its realisation and a list of results envisioned by the project. Once granted a scholardhip, participants will be divided into work groups on the basis of their proposal during the first session of the seminar. The results of the project work will be published in a yearbook.

Scholarship

The scholarship includes a one-year study period, a monthly stipend of 700 Euros, a subsidy towards travel expenses, a one-month German language course as well as an accompanying program
