Berlin-Scholarships by the Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future"
For the academic year 2009/2010 Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin once again announces 30 "Berlin Scholarships" with the support of the Foundation "Remembrance, Responsibility and Future".
Overview
The international program "Berlin Scholarships" allows students to study for one year at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin or at one of its partner institutions: Freie Universität Berlin, Technische Universität Berlin, Universität der Künste Berlin, and Fachhochschule für Wirtschaft Berlin. Along with their studies in Berlin the scholarship holders will work in groups together on a project with the topic "Excluded and Persecuted: Finding Responses to the Experiences in 20th Century Europe".
Scholarship holders will have the opportunity to carry out their study proposals by attending courses at one of the five partner institutions in Berlin. International applicants’ study proposals should be developed according to their home university’s academic requirements. Students born or raised in Germany will simply continue their regular studies in Berlin.
The program begins on September 1, 2009 and ends on July 31, 2010.
Application deadline: January 31, 2009 (receipt stamp at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin).
Application Requirements
The program is directed at students from all fields of study, who have a special interest in the history of National Socialism. We strongly encourage descendants of victims of forced labor and other victims of the National Socialist regime to apply. Additionally, applicants should have an excellent student record, a good command of German, and should be involved in societal engagements.
All international students, particularly from Eastern European countries, the CIS states, Israel and the United States may apply. For the first time, the program will also be open to students born or raised in Germany, who are already enrolled at one of the five Berlin partner institutions.
Along with their applications, applications are asked to submit first ideas and suggestions for the project work emphasizing their interest in the annual topic. Projects will be worked on together in small groups. Based on common interests and students’ initial ideas, project groups will be defined at the beginning of the semester within the framework of the project seminar.

The scholarship covers a one-year study enrollment, a monthly stipend of 700 Euros for the duration of 11 months, and an accompanying program of social and cultural activities throughout the year.
