The German Academic Exchange Service is one of the world's largest and most respected intermediary organisations in its field. Scores of students, teachers, researchers and scientists supported by the DAAD have been able to gain valuable experience abroad.

The DAAD sponsors:

from Germany and abroad in over 100 different programmes
The DAAD funds:

- the exchange of academics, guest lectureships, and the placement of Lektors for German language and German Studies at universities abroad

From the vast amount of applications, about 500 academics acting in an honorary capacity as members of the over 80 DAAD selection committees select the best candidates and projects for scholarships and funding according to academic criteria.
Previous achievements in course work and research projects must be of a high academic standard in order to be eligible for funding.
The DAAD operates mainly on the basis of public funding provided by different ministries, principally by the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
