Germany is once again offering African students a unique opportunity to pursue their higher education. The DAAD, the German Academic Exchange Service, has launched a call for applications for its scholarship programme in sub-Saharan Africa. This initiative aims to support the continent's future leaders by enabling them to study at internationally renowned universities.

Varied fields of study tailored to the challenges facing the continent

The fields of study on offer are varied and respond to Africa's current challenges: agriculture, health, the environment, information technology, etc. Students will be able to acquire the skills they need to contribute to the sustainable development of their country. The programmes are offered at partner universities in several sub-Saharan African countries, providing an enriching and multicultural study experience.

Full financial support for scholarship holders
