This year, the DAAD is once again co-financing the DUO-Korea Fellowship Programme. This scholarship programme has been supporting study visits by European and Korean students since 2001 and is funded by the Korean Ministry of Education.
The basic idea of DUO-Korea is to support South Korean and European students in tandems. A South Korean student goes to the university of the tandem partner in Europe for one semester and a European student spends time at the South Korean partner university.
Thanks to the funding provided by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF), the DAAD will finance up to 12 additional scholarships for German and South Korean students through the DUO-Korea Fellowship Programme in the call year 2022.
The programme is managed and implemented by the ASEM-DUO Secretariat.
We have summarised the most important information on the call for applications and application here.
