Each year, the university administration awards scholarships to talented students who have made a special contribution to society. Learn more about the application requirements and guidelines for applying here.

Some of you are distinguished by talent in your studies and also by special achievements in the service of the community. You shape and form society in many ways, assume social responsibility and look beyond your own professional horizons. Examples of this can be your involvement in our university (in committees, in the StuPa, AStA, Fachschaftsrat, etc.), in associations, clubs and initiatives. Some of you are particularly involved in environmental and animal protection, sports, church, or social and cultural activities.


We are able to award three scholarships annually among these individuals. The scholarship funds are made available to us by the "Stiftung zur Förderung begabter Studierender und des wissenschaftlichen Nachwuchses des Landes Rheinland-Pfalz". The scholarships are awarded for one year starting on March 01 of each year.

We are pleased to have the opportunity to appreciate your commitment in this way and look forward to receiving your application.

Requirements for an application

Only students who are enrolled in a Bachelor's or consecutive Master's degree programme at the University of Apllied Science Kaiserslautern and are enrolled in a non fee-financed degree programme are eligible to apply. They must be expected to be enrolled for at least two semesters in this degree programme at Kaiserslautern University of Applied Sciences.

German and foreign students can apply.

Pupils who wish to take up a degree programme can also apply. Applicants can submit their letter of admission or confirmation of enrolment at a later date.

Double funding is excluded, i.e. a scholarship in accordance with the Scholarship Programme Act (StipG) will not be awarded if the student receives further talent- and performance-related funding. BAföG benefits are not included in the material support mentioned here and do not preclude this scholarship.

 

The Studienstiftung's guidelines stipulate that paid work that is not conducive to achieving the study objective in terms of type and scope does not fulfil the funding criteria. Jobs that exceed a mini-job are categorised as not conducive.

Only applications that have been completed in full by the application deadline with all the required supporting documents will be considered by the university's internal admissions committee. Applications received after the application deadline or subsequently submitted documents will not be considered. The documents must be submitted together in one PDF document.
