The CSC provides students with a comprehensive financial support package that comprises travel expenses and a monthly stipend, which enables students to concentrate fully on their research project for the duration of their stay in Munich.
During the first month of their stay (usually September), LMU offers a special orientation program for scholars of the LMU–CSC Program, which comprises the following features:
LMU helps students to find a place in one of our student hostels for the first year of their stay and assists in locating appropriate private lodgings.
During the whole duration of their stay, students will receive tuition both within and outside their research unit. On completion of two academic years, CSC students are expected to present their research projects in a poster session organized by LMU's International Office. This measure helps research students to monitor their personal progress.
The LMU - China Alumni Network (LMU - CAN) was set up in October 2017. It was founded by Mr Hao FENG, a former participant in the LMU - China Scholarship Council (CSC) Program, and is actively supported by LMU's International Office.
The purpose of the Alumni Network is to act as a platform for communication and cooperation between alumni from China who studied or are still studying at LMU. It provides resources for collaborative activities, and hosts academic discussions about science (and its possible limits), current research topics, academic innovation and interdisciplinary issues.
The LMU - China Almuni Network organizes an annual Scientific Forum, which promotes academic cooperation among LMU alumni, facilitates the integration of disciplines, and enhances the overall popularity of LMU at home and abroad.
Join the LMU-CSC Alumni Network and stay connected with LMU! To become a member, please contact Mr Hao FENG.
Due to Corona-related circumstances, the next Alumni Forum will be rescheduled.
