Major Fellowships
DAAD RISE (Summer Research)
The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) Research Internships in Science and Engineering (RISE) offers undergraduate students from North American, British and Irish universities the opportunity to complete a summer research internship at top German universities and research institutions. Students are matched with a host university or institute according to their area of interest (biology, chemistry, physics, earth sciences, engineering, or a closely related field). DAAD provides students a monthly stipend for three months to help cover living expenses. Knowledge of German is not required and the working language will be in English. Applicants are required to have completed at least two years of an undergraduate degree program by the time of the internship and must maintain undergraduate status throughout the duration. U.S. Citizens and citizens of other countries who have studied at a U.S. university/college for more than 12 months at the application deadline are welcome to apply.
