About this position
DAAD is offering Study Scholarships for Postgraduate Studies in the Field of the Performing Arts in Germany for international students and researchers.
This opportunity supports postgraduate or continuing study in the artistic field of the Performing Arts, including Drama, Theatre Directing, Theatre Dramaturgy, Musicals, Performance Studies, Dance, and Choreography. It is aimed at applicants who already hold a first university degree in the field of the Performing Arts.
You may apply for either a Master’s degree/postgraduate degree programme at a state or state-recognised German university, or for a complementary study/project period without a degree with a professor or instructor in Germany. For non-degree study, a connection to a university in the arts field in Germany is mandatory and must be confirmed by supervision.
Funding includes a monthly stipend of 992 euros, a travel allowance (upon application), a one-off study allowance, and contributions to health, accident, and personal liability insurance. Additional support may be available for rent, accompanying family members, disability/chronic illness-related costs, and climate-friendly travel. DAAD also offers German language support, including online course fees and, where necessary, a pre-study German course. Tuition fees are not covered.
Eligibility highlights: first university degree in Performing Arts; artistic project or degree study in the specified performing arts fields; admission to the host university may be required; an entrance examination is often required; an artistic portfolio is requested after the formal check.
Application process: submit your application documents via the DAAD portal. After the formal check, you will be asked to upload your artistic portfolio. You should also check the admission requirements and deadlines of your chosen German university, since the scholarship award letter is only valid once you have been admitted to the named host university.
Timing: funding usually starts on 1 October of the following year, depending on the study programme and whether a German language course is taken beforehand. The post does not state a single application deadline in the text provided.
Funding details
Full funding including tuition fees and living expenses is available for this position. The scholarship covers all educational costs and provides a monthly stipend.
How to apply
Please submit your application including a cover letter, CV, academic transcripts, and contact information for two references. Applications should be sent via the online portal before the deadline.
