You have been accepted to study abroad at your dream university and are now wondering how to organize the funds for your stay? For many students, this topic is particularly important. In the following, we have summarized the most important information on available funding.

Scholarships for All Subject Areas

The TUM Global & Alumni Office offers numerous scholarships to students from all subject areas of the TUM School of Computation, Information and Technology. These facilitate study visits and internships, both within Europe and worldwide. In addition, it provides you with all the important information on scholarships from third parties.

Scholarships for the Subject Area Electrical and Computer Engineering

Students in the subject area of Electrical and Computer Engineering have the opportunity to apply for one or more of the following foundation scholarships:

  • Walter Gademann Foundation
  • Heinrich and Lotte Mühlfenzl Foundation
  • Lothar and Sigrid Rohde Foundation 

The foundations primarily support stays abroad outside Europe for a maximum of six months. To be eligible to apply, you must have above-average academic performance and a record of social engagement within and/or outside the university.

Please apply for all three scholarships by April 20, 2026, using our application form.

Please note: Students can only receive funding once. There is no legal entitlement to financial support. Repayment of the scholarship may be required if the short report is not submitted to the university on time.
