DAAD EPOS Scholarship 2027/28 in Germany (Fully Funded)

Offered by DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service)

1 Oct 2026

Fully funded scholarship from DAAD in Germany. Check the deadline and eligibility on the official page before applying.

A scholarship offered by DAAD in Germany.

The organiser describes this as fully funded. On this site that means tuition and accommodation are recorded as covered; flights are left as not stated until we have confirmed them, because they vary between programmes that use the same phrase. This is aimed at applicants at Master's level.

Before you apply

Open the official page and confirm three things: that the deadline still stands, that you meet the eligibility criteria as they are written there, and what documents you will need. Applications fail more often on a missing document than on a weak candidate.

Every detail here is checked against the organisation's own page, and that page is the authority: deadlines move, eligibility is rewritten, and programmes are withdrawn without announcement. Confirm before you apply.

How to apply

EPOS is not a single application. You apply directly to the postgraduate courses themselves — up to three of them — and each course runs its own procedure, documents and deadline. A selection committee then puts candidates forward for the DAAD scholarship.

Find the list of participating courses in the DAAD scholarship database, then work from each course's own website. Sending an application to DAAD directly achieves nothing.

What you will need

  • Whatever each individual course requires
  • Proof of at least two years of professional experience
  • Degree certificates and transcripts
  • Language certificate

Eligibility notes

For graduates from developing and newly industrialised countries, in any discipline, with at least two years of professional experience.

Details can change without notice. Confirm everything on the organisation's own page before you apply — see our disclaimer. Spotted something out of date? Tell us.
