Studying Abroad

Many students of the North American Studies Program spend a year abroad, either in the United States or Canada, some even in both places. Our students’ applications for scholarships offered by the Fulbright Kommission, the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and the Direct Exchange Program of the University of Bonn have been and continue to be highly successful. This is why we want to encourage you to take the opportunity to spent a year abroad – or at another European university – during your studies. The following links to organizations and institutions that offer more information on scholarships and grants are meant to get you started on this project.
