Scholarships for TUHH Students while Studying Abroad
Scholarships for study abroad are only awarded after students have taken their intermediate diploma and are not, as a rule, full scholarships. In other words, they only cover expenses over and above living costs.
The funding opportunities listed here are available for German applicants and in some cases for applicants from EU countries and for applicants who are classified as Bildungsinländer, or Germans for educational purposes, and are thereby equal in status to German applicants for some programs.
Further information about studying abroad and scholarships on offer is available from the International Office.
