Measures to Increase the Mobility of Doctoral Students - Scholarships
Travel scholarships for
- Master students
(For foreign students who wish to complete an internship of up to three months at the LUH). - Doctoral candidates from abroad
(Get to know each other up to 1 month) - Doctoral candidates (
Research stays of up to 3 months, LUH doctoral students can go abroad and foreign doctoral students can come to LUH.)
Applications for Travel Scholarships
Applications can be sent directly by e-mail to the QUEST-LFS office.
Incl. a short reason for the selection of the candidate - approx. half page - details see below.
Criteria for scholarship applications
One of the most important selection criteria is the applicant's convincing academic qualification. This should be documented by:
- The academic achievements in relation to the duration of study.
- Scientific publications, if applicable.
Further selection criteria apply to applications with the aim of carrying out a concrete research project:
- Quality of the technical presentation of the project and of the preliminary work.
- Embedding of the project in the overall doctoral project (in terms of content and time).
- Suitability of the target institution
(Reasons for the stay abroad and the choice of the target university).
