DAAD MIPLC SCHOLARSHIPS 2026/2027 FOR STUDENTS FROM DEVELOPING COUNTRIES – GERMANY

Application Deadline: 15 October, 2025

LOCATION: Germany

MIPLC collaborates with the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), which offers a limited number of scholarships through their Development-Related Postgraduate Courses (EPOS) to highly qualified applicants facing financial constraints.

ELIGIBILITY:

MIPLC students bring to the learning community a high level of excellence expressed in a rich diversity of backgrounds, accomplishments, talents, and interests. Students in past classes have consistently found this special atmosphere to be very conducive to their studies—and great fun, too. To be eligible for admission, applicants need to have at least a prior university or college degree, professional experience, and very good knowledge of the English language.

All applicants must hold a Bachelor’s degree or higher. While most of their students have a previous degree in law, natural sciences, or engineering, they also welcome students from other disciplines. If the subject of your prior studies seems to lack an obvious relation to IP, they invite you to persuade us in your letter of motivation why you are nevertheless an interesting candidate for our LL.M. program.

To start your studies at MIPLC, you are required to have attained at least 240 ECTS credits, which are generally equivalent to a four-year Bachelor’s degree. At MIPLC, you will earn 60 ECTS credits, amounting to 300 ECTS credits, which is the minimum required for the Master’s degree. If you have fewer than 240 ECTS credits, e.g., because you only have a three-year Bachelor’s degree, we can recognize additional credits you have acquired through professional experience. You can earn a maximum of 60 ECTS credits in this manner.

However, if you are awarded 60 ECTS credits for prior professional experience, you must have at least two years of professional experience: one year for the extra credits, and another year to satisfy the professional experience requirement

Since the program is taught entirely in English, all students must have very good knowledge of the English language. One of the admission requirements, therefore, is a minimum score on one of the following tests taken within the last three years:

TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language http://www.toefl.org): minimum score of 85 (iBT), 223 (CBT), or 563 (PBT) Please note that MIPLC does not have an institution code; or

IELTS (International English Language Testing System, academic version http://www.ielts.org): minimum score of 6.5; or

Cambridge C1 (https://www.cambridgeenglish.org/exams-and-tests/advanced/): minimum score of 185.

BENEFIT:

The scholarship recipient(s) will get a full tuition waiver from the MIPLC.

The DAAD will pay the scholarship recipient(s) a monthly stipend of EUR 750.00.

As a rule, the scholarship additionally includes certain payments towards health, accident and liability insurance coverage in Germany.

In addition, the DAAD will generally pay an appropriate travel allowance, unless these costs are covered by the home country or by another funding source.

Furthermore, the DAAD will also pay a study and research allowance.

Last but not least, the scholarship covers a mandatory two-month German course before the start of the MIPLC LL.M. program.
