DAAD Scholars

Every year, the Humboldt-Universität welcomes innumerable international academics and teaching staff on the basis of scholarships and exchange programmes, e.g. the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).

Humboldt-Universität has collected comprehensive information, which can be found on European Network of Mobility Centers. Many answers to questions concerning the exchange of university staff can be found there. 

We will try to help you, if you have questions concerning

• payment of scholarships
• support in applying for or extending a residence permit
• private health insurance

Scholarship holders receive their payments at the Cashiers' Office, HU main building, Unter den Linden 6. Please visit the Accounting Office next to the Cashiers' Office first (room 1006).
