It is a legally recognized, non-profit foundation under private law and has been continuing efforts to support talented students for over 65 years. To date, it has supported more than 8,000 scholarship recipients. Each year, up to 50 students in engineering, business, and STEM fields receive financial support (€550 per semester) as well as non-material support (networking, workshops, internship placement).

Mission & Vision
The Rheinstahl Foundation is committed to the academic education and professional development of talented students. Through financial and non-material support, it aims to enable excellent academic achievements, strengthen social engagement, promote a sense of responsibility, and foster an active interest in industry and business.
Target groups
The scholarship is aimed at high-achieving students of engineering, economics, and other STEM subjects who are enrolled at least in the 2nd semester of their bachelor's degree or in a master's program. A prerequisite is continuous voluntary extracurricular engagement that makes a significant contribution to society. Up to 50 RheinStips are selected annually and integrated into the foundation's community through active participation in events.
