About this position

DAAD is advertising Study Scholarships – Master Studies for All Academic Disciplines for international students and researchers who want to continue their academic education in Germany.

This is a Master’s/postgraduate scholarship rather than a job opening. It supports a whole postgraduate or Master’s degree at a state or state-recognised university in Germany, or one year of study in Germany as part of a second or Master’s degree completed at the home university (with credit recognition).

Funding includes a monthly scholarship payment of €992, contributions toward health/accident/personal liability insurance, a travel allowance (upon application), and an annual study allowance of €460. Additional support may be available for rent, accompanying family members, disability/chronic illness-related costs, and climate-friendly travel. DAAD also offers language-related support, including online German course fees, a pre-study German language course if needed, a personally chosen German course during the scholarship, and reimbursement of TestDaF or DSH fees.

Eligibility highlights: applicants must have completed their first degree (e.g. Bachelor’s or Diplom) by the time funding begins. Selection is based on academic qualification, achievements, language ability, study project quality, fit with the academic career path, motivation, prospects, and extracurricular commitment. For artistic disciplines and architecture (including Urban Design), DAAD points applicants to separate scholarship programmes.

Funding start: funding must begin in 2027, and the scholarship usually starts on 1 October 2027 (or earlier if a German language course is taken before the study programme). DAAD notes that tuition fees are not covered.

How to apply: use the DAAD scholarship database entry and follow the application requirements/procedure tabs. Prepare your degree documents, study project, language evidence, and other required materials, then submit through the DAAD application process for the 2027 intake.
