OeAD Scholarships for International Students

These scholarships are designed to promote international exchange and academic cooperation. They are available for various academic levels, including undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral studies, as well as for post-doctoral research stays at Austrian universities and research institutions.

The specific terms, eligibility criteria, and funding amounts vary significantly depending on the individual scholarship program, the applicant's country of origin, and the academic field. Applicants must identify the specific program that matches their academic profile and research interests.

The OeAD acts as the administrative body for these grants, overseeing the application, selection, and payment processes. Most programs require applicants to submit their documentation through the official OeAD online portal, where they can also track the status of their application.

Austria offers a high-quality higher education system integrated into the European Higher Education Area. Scholarship recipients benefit from access to research infrastructure, academic networks, and the opportunity to engage with the Austrian scientific community.
