Scholarship ceremony Deutschlandstipendium

At the annual scholarship celebration, sponsors and scholarship holders meet to exchange ideas, get to know each other or meet again. In an informal atmosphere, there will be the opportunity to talk about professional perspectives and ideal support. A review of the previous celebrations can be found under References.

The scholarship celebration to mark the beginning of the scholarship year 2022/23 took place virtually on Wednesday, December 07, 2022. In the following you will find a review of the event.

Review of the virtual scholarship celebration on December 07, 2022

On 7 December 2022, we again opened the new funding year 2022/2023 of the Deutschlandstipendium at TU Dresden with a virtual scholarship celebration. The 324 scholarship holders as well as over 100 sponsors and members of the TU Dresden selection committees were invited.

Despite the virtuality, a lively and unifying program was put together. The event was opened by the Prorector for Education, Prof. Dr. Michael Kobel, who first thanked all sponsors who contribute to the large number of scholarships with their support.

The scholarship holders also took the opportunity to express their thanks to their sponsors by sending us short video messages in advance. A thank-you video was edited from these statements and presented for the first time at the scholarship celebration.

A highlight of this year was the Matching Challenge and fundraising campaign for Ukrainian students. With the help of numerous donors, 30 more scholarships were awarded. Two of the scholarship holders, the siblings Vira and Anastasiia, talked about their experiences in the Ukraine and their studies at the TU Dresden in an interview.
In the second part of the event, despite the distance between all participants, a chocolate tasting was held. Chocolate boxes were sent to all parts of the world beforehand, which could then be tasted under the guidance of chocolate sommelier Andrea Mast from Kakao Pur.

Following the festive programme, the get-together of sponsors and "their" scholarship holders took place in their own conference rooms via BigBlueButton to get to know each other, exchange ideas and network.

We would like to thank you for coming and for the successful evening with many new encounters and a lively exchange!
