Doctoral Scholarships

The Berlin Graduate School Muslim Cultures and Societies currently grants four full doctoral scholarships per year from funds of the Gerda Henkel Foundation, and through the Graduate School Scholarship Programme of the DAAD. The admission committee decides on the award of scholarships as part of the regular annual application procedure. The full doctoral scholarships are for a period of three years and amount to approximately 1500,- € per month.

Doctoral fellows who cannot be offered a scholarship from the Graduate School can join our program with an external scholarship. It is also possible to join our program as an affiliated doctoral candidate if you have a position as a research assistant in a research project at one of our partner institutes in Berlin. Doctoral fellows with an external fellowship and affiliate doctoral fellows are full members of our program and are entitled to the appropriate professional and material support.
