Description
Administered by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and funded by the German Federal Foreign Office, this programme promotes artistic cooperation with German host institutions. It supports university teachers undertaking study visits at one or several state or state-recognised universities in Germany.
Supported disciplines include architecture and related planning and conservation fields, fine art, film, design, visual communication, music, and performing arts. The programme centres on collaborative projects with German hosts rather than a degree programme. An independent selection committee places particular emphasis on applicants’ specialist qualifications and a convincing, well-planned research project, while also giving due consideration to equal opportunities.
