“Since 1990, the AvH has awarded 10 German Chancellor Scholarships annually to prospective leaders from the U.S.A. (under 35 years of age) in the academic, economic and political fields, enabling them to carry out research projects of their own choice in Germany. During one-year research stays, scholars are also given an opportunity to gain an insight into the social, cultural, economic and political situation in Germany. German Chancellor Scholars also take part in a four-week introductory seminar in Bonn and Berlin in September, a fact- finding tour of Germany and an evaluation seminar in Bonn. In addition to the scholarship, the Foundation bears the costs for preparatory German language tuition and an intensive course of several weeks in Bonn.”
Applicants design individual projects specific to Germany and decide at which institutions to pursue them. Scholarships average, for monthly stipend, from 2,000 to 3,500 Euros for 12 months, plus travel expenses and in-country language training.
