Goethe Goes Global - Master Scholarships

A Master’s degree programme – generally a two-year course, both at Goethe University and elsewhere in Germany – enables you to expand and deepen the knowledge you have gained at undergraduate level. A Master’s degree provides in-depth education which will enable you either to enter the professional job market or to continue studying towards the next level of academic degree: a PhD.

To qualify for admission to a Master’s programme at Goethe University, you must have already completed a Bachelor’s degree (or another programme at an equivalent level) in a relevant field, and have passed the selection process of the respective programme.

Please check which Master degree programme you are interested in and whether you meet the application requirements, such as language skills, academic background, etc.

The Goethe Goes Global Scholarship offers:

- A monthly scholarship amount of 1,000€ for the standard period of a master’s programme at Goethe-University (generally 2 years)

- Support and orientation from an experienced master's student buddy during your studies

- Access to seminars focusing on professional skills at our Graduate Academy (GRADE), normally open only to PhD students and postdocs

- Access to an innovative research environment and networks that connect you with fellow scholarship holders and other advanced researchers

- The option to write your master's thesis and other seminar papers or do an internship in an appropriate research unit at the university
