Cooperation scholarship
Targeted support for your own studies
With the cooperation scholarships, Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences has its own scholarship programs to support its best students. These scholarships, which are funded by private donors, are awarded by the university in various branches of studies and study phases. In the case of the cooperation scholarship, the private sponsor is involved in the selection of the scholarship recipients. In addition to the financial support of usually €300 per month, our cooperation partners offer you the opportunity to benefit from their know-how and, for example, to get to know the sponsoring company through mentoring programs, working student positions or thesis positions and to build up a strong network for your professional future.
