Additional Information on DAAD Study Scholarships in the Fields of Drama, Direction, Dance, and Choreography
- As a rule, scholarships for the above-mentioned subject areas are awarded to applicants who have exhausted the training opportunities in their home country and have passed a final examination in the relevant subject area. No more than six years should generally have passed between the time when they gained their degree and the time of this application.
- Scholarships are awarded for one academic year. In individual cases and upon application the scholarship may be extended. The above-mentioned subject areas can be studied as a state (public) or state-recognised German higher education institution. However, approval of the scholarship does not automatically mean that the applicant has been admitted to a higher education institution.
- The final selection decision on applicants is reached by a special DAAD committee, made up of professors from the relevant disciplines.
- Applicants from the fields of drama and direction must have a very good to excellent knowledge of German; applicants from the fields of dance and choreography must at least have a basic knowledge of German and a good knowledge of English. Language certificates must be submitted.
- Applicants must submit the following along with the other application papers:
- Drama: a video or DVD in which applicants present themselves (in German), explain the reasons for their application and their plans in Germany (approx. 5 minutes). This is followed by two role extracts each lasting between 5 and 10 minutes, of which one may be in English. Recordings with technical faults (lighting/sound quality) cannot be considered.
- Direction: a video/DVD with presentation; the video/DVD should then document the applicant's own projects and may be accompanied by additional written material.
- Dance: a video/DVD with presentation (as for drama applicants). This is followed by two dance interludes: classical (warm-up training), modern (applicant's own piece).
- Choreography: a video/DVD with presentation. This is followed by the applicant's own choreography of around 15 minutes.
- Drama: a video or DVD in which applicants present themselves (in German), explain the reasons for their application and their plans in Germany (approx. 5 minutes). This is followed by two role extracts each lasting between 5 and 10 minutes, of which one may be in English. Recordings with technical faults (lighting/sound quality) cannot be considered.
Please note that all sound and image media must be playable on systems commonly used in Germany.
All applicants are expected to have already informed themselves about study opportunities at German higher education institutions. Submission of contentual reasons for the choice of higher education institution plus any existing contacts will be positively assessed.
