Duisburg-Essener Universitäts-Stiftung
About the funder
The Duisburg-Essen University Foundation was established in 2007 as the first German foundation funded by tuition fees from the University of Duisburg-Essen. It provides financial resources outside of public budgets to sustainably improve teaching and study conditions. Currently, the focus is on supporting students in unforeseen emergencies, whose continuation of studies would be at risk without grants. The funding measures are financed from the returns on the foundation’s assets. Additionally, the foundation solicits donations and endowments to ensure the long-term continuation of its successful work.
