DAAD Hilde Domin Scholarship

The DAAD Hilde Domin Scholarship is a prestigious funding program offered by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) to support international students and doctoral candidates who are at risk of being denied educational or other rights in their home countries. Named after the German writer Hilde Domin, this scholarship aims to provide academic refuge and promote educational opportunities for those facing political, ethnic, or social persecution. The scholarship covers a wide range of academic disciplines and is available for both undergraduate and postgraduate studies at German universities. Eligible applicants must demonstrate academic excellence, a clear need for protection, and a strong motivation to contribute to their home countries after completing their studies. The program typically includes monthly stipends, travel allowances, health insurance, and additional support for language courses. Application deadlines vary by region and academic cycle, with detailed requirements available through DAAD’s official channels. This scholarship represents Germany’s commitment to academic freedom and international educational exchange, providing life-changing opportunities for students worldwide.
