Become a sponsor

The University of Passau enjoys an excellent reputation in Germany and the world owing to its consistent international approach and its focus on performance and practical relevance.

We expect a lot from our students – but at the same time, we give you individual support, provide first-rate education and give you the best chance for a bright future.

We need your support for the long-term subsidisation of the most promising students of the University of Passau. We welcome sponsorships from companies large, medium-sized and small, as well as foundations and private individuals.

How to become a sponsor

As a sponsor you have a number of opportunities to get involved with the scholarship programme of the University of Passau:

Sponsorship package 1

• Spend a minimum amount of 1,800 euros and pay a one-year scholarship for one or more students.
• Choose the discipline for which you want to sponsor a scholarship.
• Make the scholarship holders special offers (e.g. internships or training seminars).
• Meet your sponsored scholarship holders.
• Those sponsoring five or more scholarships have the option of sitting on the selection committee.

Sponsorship package 2

• Make a non-discipline-specific donation of at least 150 euros, the scholarship contribution for one month.
• We then use the pooled donations to form full-year scholarships if possible.
• We select particularly strong and socially committed students.

Your contribution will make a difference – regardless of whether your motivation is to make a connection with the cream of the crop of University of Passau students early on, support young talents or simply give back.

• The University of Passau encourages exchanges between sponsors and scholarship recipients. As a sponsor you will be invited once a year to the scholarship award ceremony, giving you a chance to meet the scholarship holders personally.
  
  
• Various events throughout the year give you the opportunity to get to know the University better, and provide a venue for you to exchange ideas with other sponsors.
  
  
• You create an early link with your potential future specialists and managers.

• You get to use the Deutschlandstipendium logo on your communications.
  
  
• You get the opportunity to foster a relationship with the University and strengthen your role in the regional network.
