The University of Applied Sciences in Kufstein has awarded 92 students a merit scholarship from the Federal Ministry of Education, Science and Research for their outstanding academic achievements. The award ceremony took place in mid-December.
For the academic year 2022/2023, the Kufstein University was able to award merit scholarships worth a total of 138,000 euros. Four students from each of 23 degree programs were awarded a scholarship if their academic performance resulted in an average grade of at least 2.0. The award ceremony took place in December 2023 in the “Festsaal” (Festivities Hall) of the University of Applied Sciences in Kufstein. The students received their certificates from the Directors of Studies in person and then celebrated their outstanding success together.
AWARD FOR STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT
“Every year, it is a pleasant event for me to honor ambitious students for their achievements,” said Prof. (FH) Dr. Mario Döller, Rector of the Kufstein University. “Many of our students finance their degree program themselves. The merit scholarship is a welcome subsidy and an appreciation for the many hours of study.”
The outstanding performance of the students was rewarded with a sum of 1,500 euros per scholarship. The call for applications for the merit scholarships for the 2023/2024 academic year is expected in the middle of the year. All application information will be published after the call for applications.
