Foreign Study Sponsorship from Friedrich Naumann Foundation

The Friedrich Nauman Foundation sees itself as the foundation for liberal politics in Germany. It is closely connected to the FPD party. The foundation has been sponsoring students at German universities since 1973, and also at universities of applied sciences since 1990.
Besides excellent academic achievements it also expects commitment to political and social issues and positive personal qualities such as reliability, motivation and decisiveness of its students.
The objective of sponsoring foreign students is that they return to their home countries after their examinations and put the knowledge they have gained to use in the interests of those countries. Approximately 50 foreign students are sponsored every year.

The following is expected of scholarship applicants:

- Personal qualities: These include reliability, motivation, decisiveness and a willingness to assume responsibility and actively contribute with one’s abilities to the further development of society.
- Liberal commitment to social and political issues: Activities in student administration, on higher education boards, in a liberal political party, in a political student organisation or in social institutions or associations are desirable.

Eligible to apply are foreign students after an academic intermediate exam (e.g. first Diplom, Bachelor), however not if they will shortly be completing their studies. Study visits abroad will not be sponsored.
Number of Scholarships approximately 50 foreign students are sponsored each year.
Sponsorships are initially awarded for one year. For concentrated studies extensions may be granted until the academic studies are completed.

    Dear Sir or Madam,

    How are you today? Hope you are great.

    I am Eliza Chan, a first year university student in Cambodia, and I take Business major, but as you have known, Cambodia is a very poor country, so the university here also have a poor experience, I can recognize that the education is not good.

    Recently, I have just gone through your website, I read carefully each sentence by sentence. I know that the school in German is very good, the school has excellent curriculum and experience in teaching, with also the best environment in Europe.

    That is why I do really want to study there; however, my living standard in Cambodia is low. So, would you mind giving me some suggestions?

    If you can find the best way for me to study there, it is just like my dream comes true!

    Hope you will have time to reply me back.
    I will be always waiting for your reply.

    Warmest Regards,

    …………………

I am very interested to apply in this scholarship program and study the course which is related to educational management. The purpose of mine is, I want to help and improve the educational system here in our country. I do believe that development of a country relies on the hands of our children/students.Thus, they need to have quality education.

    I am 25 years of age, and a graduate of Bachelor of Arts in English. I have earned units also in education that made me passed the LICENSURE EXAMINATION FOR TEACHERS. In short, I am a licensed teacher already. I am about to finish my academic course in master’s education this year. I really wish to extend my education in abroad that is related to educational management because I want to have quality education for my countrymen. This is my email ad: mundpals@yahoo.com

    May God grant this wish.
    Thank you.
