Welcome to the IC East Jerusalem
-
- The DAAD, the German Academic Exchange Service, is an organization of all
German universities. It organizes academic exchange between Germany and other countries
worldwide. Because of its very difficult situation it has been passing through, Palestine
has been one focus in the work of DAAD. Every year many students and professors receive
scholarships from DAAD in order to complete their studies in Germany or take up research
projects together with their German colleagues.
The exchange works also in the opposite direction. DAAD has been sponsoring a German
Visiting Professor in the Social Sciences at Birzeit University for more than ten years by
now. Moreover, every year, German professors visit Palestinian Universities, both for
lectures and for short-term teaching assignments of up to six months. Finally, a good
number of German M.A. and Ph.D. students, mainly from the Social Sciences, come to
Palestine on scholarships to do their field-research here on a variety of topics.
 Dr. Helga Baumgarten is head of the
DAAD IC East Jerusalem and DAAD Professor at Birzeit University. She can be reached both,
in Jerusalem and in Birzeit. If you want to pass by or if you plan to make an appointment,
please, check her office hours.
 Her assistant, Eveline Muhareb, works in the
office of the DAAD IC Jerusalem in East Jerusalem, and will be happy to answer any
questions about the DAAD scholarship programs.
