Deutschlandstipendium at the University of Regensburg

University of Regensburg, Germany

Scholarship overview

The Deutschlandstipendium is a national scholarship programme introduced in 2011 that supports talented, high-achieving students of all nationalities. The University of Regensburg awards it directly to students of all degree programmes.

Half of the amount is paid by private sponsors (companies, foundations, alumni or other donors) and half by the federal government. Awards are subject to available funds. Scholarships are awarded once a year: the call and selection take place in the winter semester and the scholarships start at the beginning of the summer semester.

The current call covers the summer semester 2027 and winter semester 2027-28. Applications that are not submitted on time and in the correct form are not considered.
