Scholarships

Scholarships

The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD Homepage) grants a limited number of scholarships covering living expenses (the service fee will be waived). To be eligible to apply for the DAAD scholarship, applicants must be
  • from a developing or transition country and
  • have two or more years of professional experience.
To apply for the scholarship, please download the DAAD application form (Download Application for Research Grants and Study Scholarships, PDF 252 KB). Further information about the scholarship and the necessary prerequisites are available here (PDF 21 KB).
If you wish to apply for a scholarship, please indicate this in your application form for the MIDE programme.
The MIDE application form, the supporting documents as well as the DAAD application form should be sent to

FHTW Berlin
MIDE Admissions
10313 Berlin
Germany

The MIDE office will process the DAAD application for you. The deadline for scholarship applications is 30 September in the year before the MIDE programme starts.

You may also send your scholarship application together with your application for the MIDE programme via the German Embassy in your home country to the DAAD. The DAAD will then forward your application to the MIDE office. Please note that the deadline for applications via the German Embassy is 31 August in the year before the programme starts.

To facilitate processing, we encourage applicants to send their application directly to FHTW Berlin.

Applicants for a scholarship will be selected by the DAAD in co-operation with the FHTW Berlin.

We encourage all applicants who cannot study without a scholarship to explore alternatives to the DAAD scholarship. The MIDE programme normally receives more than 150 scholarship applications for only 5 to 7 available grants. If you want to apply for a scholarship from another organisation, please do so as early as possible (usually at least one year before the MIDE programme starts). The FHTW Berlin does not offer assistance if you wish to apply for a scholarship other than DAAD.
