Attention: Unfortunately we can only award a few scholarships. Therefore, when choosing a partner university to study abroad, several criteria should play a role and not only the potential Erasmus+ International funding.

Funding is provided for study residencies as follows:

  • Individual support: 700,- €/month
  • The subsidy for travel costs varies depending on the destination country (see table).

Please note that we have limited budgets and cannot fund all applicants.
