April 22, 2024. TU Dresden can award 343 Deutschlandstipendien this year. That is a new record. The scholarship program started in 2011 with 150 sponsored students. After some ups and downs in the following years, the number of Germany Scholarships awarded has risen continuously since 2017. By 2023, 323 students were already benefiting from the funding. The current record amount underlines TUD’s strong and sustained commitment to promoting promising talent and academic excellence.

Private individuals as well as associations, foundations and companies are involved as sponsors. The latter mainly support students in STEM subjects, while private individuals and associations focus on the social sciences and humanities. This diversity enables scholarships for all subject areas at TU Dresden. In addition to academic achievements, commitment and social criteria also play a role in the selection of scholarship holders. They receive 300 euros per month; half of the sum comes from donations, the other half from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The Deutschlandstipendium is initially awarded for one year, but can be extended annually until the end of the standard period of study.
For the first time in years, a live scholarship celebration was held on April 16 at the Center for Regenerative Therapies Dresden (CRTD) for new and old scholarship holders and their sponsors to get to know each other. 250 scholarship holders and sponsors came to celebrate their outstanding achievements and commitment.
