Deutschlandstipendium

By providing a Deutschlandstipendium, you - whether as a private or institutional sponsor, a foundation, an association, or a company - create a safety net for students who deserve support because they are exceptionally talented and because they face difficulties in financing their studies.

The Deutschlandstipendium brings together people who take responsibility. Whether as sponsors, scholarship holders, or applicants—discover how commitment works at LMU.

Promoting growth

Anyone who decides to sponsor a scholarship is not only making a social contribution but also an environmental one. As a token of gratitude and a commitment to sustainability, all sponsors of the Deutschlandstipendium receive an LMU tree sponsorship.

One scholarship - many faces
