Graduate Scholarship


Higher-education graduates of outstanding academic merit who plan to complete a doctoral programme or carry out an artistic development project at a higher education institution in Mecklenburg-West Pomerania are welcome to apply. The PhD scholarships are awarded to graduates on the basis of excellent academic achievements who have been admitted to a doctoral programme and are mentored by a PhD advisor at a higher education institution of the Federal Land.
