Helmut Schmidt Programme (DAAD Scholarships)

Helmut Schmidt Programme (Master’s Scholarships for Public Policy and Good Governance)

Since 2009, the DAAD Helmut Schmidt Programme (formerly known as “Public Policy and Good Governance Programme”) has been supporting future leaders from Africa, Latin America, the Middle-East, and South- and Southeast-Asia who want to promote democracy and social justice in their home countries. The programme, which is funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, offers the chance to acquire a Master’s degree in Master programmes of particular relevance for the social, political and economic development in the students’ countries of origin. In the light of the principles of Good Governance, highly qualified graduates with a first academic degree are being educated in political science, law, economics and administration and prepared for future leading positions in their home countries. In addition, the scholarship holders will hopefully continue to be qualified contact persons for German politics and economy after their return. University of Applied Sciences Osnabrück admits up to ten scholars every winter semester to the Master’s programme “Management in Nonprofit-Organisations”.

Helmut-Schmidt-Programme scholarships are being provided for the following countries:
