WSV Stipendium Bauingenieurwesen (B.Sc./M.Sc.) at Helmut Schmidt University

Helmut Schmidt University / University of the Bundeswehr Hamburg, Germany

Scholarship overview

The German Federal Waterways and Shipping Administration (WSV) funds 18 scholarships a year for the Civil Engineering degree (Bachelor and Master of Science) at Helmut Schmidt University in Hamburg. The WSV carries the cost of the studies and pays a monthly study allowance.

The scheme is linked to a work commitment: the WSV aims for permanent employment with the administration after graduation. Applications go directly to the WSV, not to the university.
