Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences would like to support young academics as part of the federal initiative of the national scholarship program "Deutschlandstipendium" (Germany Scholarship). This scholarship not only serves to finance studies, but is also intended to provide incentives for top performance. We would therefore like to provide special support to high-achieving and committed students. 

Applications for the Germany Scholarship are possible from February 1 to June 30, 2025.

Information on the Germany Scholarship

Information for Companies

Promoting young scientists and supporting the managers of tomorrow - for your company too?

 
If you, as a business ownder, representative of an institution or as a private individual, take on the financing of at least one annual scholarship of 1,800 euros, the federal government will add a further 1,800 euros. Scholarship holders thus receive an income-independent grant of 300 euros per month (in addition to BAföG benefits) for at least two semesters and at most until the end of the standard period of study, so that they can successfully concentrate on their university education.

We would be delighted if you could get involved as a sponsor and offer such a scholarship to a student for at least one year. Magdeburg-Stendal University of Applied Sciences offers very practice-oriented courses of study and has attractive laboratories and equipment, particularly in the field of engineering. With your support for talented students, you can promote tomorrow's successful employees today.

Of course, you will receive a donation receipt from us so that your financial contribution is tax-deductible.
