DLR-DAAD Research Fellowships in the fields of Space, Aeronautics, Energy and Transportation Research
DLR–DAAD Research Fellowships is a new program implemented by the Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt (DLR) and DAAD.
DLR is Germany's national research center for aeronautics and space. Its extensive research and development work in Aeronautics, Space, Transportation and Energy is integrated into national and international cooperative ventures. As Germany's space agency, DLR has been given responsibility for the forward planning and the implementation of the German space program by the German federal government as well as for the international representation of German interests. Approximately 5,700 people are employed in DLR's 29 institutes and facilities at thirteen locations in Germany.
This special program is intended for highly-qualified foreign doctoral and postdoctoral students as well as senior scientists. DLR-DAAD Fellowships offer outstanding scientists and researchers the opportunity to conduct special research at the institutes of the DLR in Germany.
DLR-DAAD Fellowships are defined and awarded on an individual basis. Each Fellowship announcement will indicate the specific qualification requirements and terms of the visit. The current offers are published under 'DLR-DAAD Fellowships - Current Offers' on the DAAD homepage.
