German Chancellor Scholarships Ten German Chancellor Scholarships are awarded annually to highly motivated individuals in the private, public, not-for-profit, cultural and academic sectors. The program sponsors individuals who demonstrate the potential to strengthen ties between Germany and the United States through their profession or studies. The scholarship provides for a stay of one year in Germany for professional development, study, or research. Applicants design individual projects tailored to their professional development and goals and decide at which institutions to pursue them. Successful candidates have come from such fields as business, government, social and policy sciences, law, journalism, communications, management, finance, economics, architecture, public service, humanities, arts and environmental affairs. The program begins September 1 and lasts 12months. It is preceded in August by language classes taught in Germany. The monthly stipends range from Euro 2,000 to 3,500 and special allowances are available for accompanying family members, travel expenses, and German language instruction. Candidates must be U.S. citizens, possess a bachelor's degree by the start of the award, and should be under 35 years old. Command of German is not a prerequisite.
