Description
The Respect & Appreciation Scholarship of the DAAD Foundation offers dedicated American students and researchers the opportunity to discover Germany as a place for professional development and intercultural experience. Projects in the natural sciences, engineering, sports and language sciences, economics, psychology, theology, and philosophy are supported. Thanks to the continuous application possibility, interested parties can submit their project plans at any time and receive financial support in the form of an award. The goal is to impart not only in-depth professional knowledge but also profound insights into German society and language. Through the funding, the scholarship holders are to grow into "ambassadors for internationality" and contribute their acquired experiences to transatlantic networks.
The scholarship fund was initiated through a private donation and honors the commitment of American early-career researchers with a one- or multi-month study or research stay at a German university or research institution. The focus is on sustainable networking and the promotion of innovative capacity through interdisciplinary exchange. As a nationwide program, it is aimed at U.S. citizens currently enrolled in studies or conducting their own research projects in the aforementioned fields. Through the unique combination of professional support and intercultural practice, the scholarship makes an important contribution to strengthening scientific exchange between Germany and the USA.
