Combined study and practice stays for engineers from developing countries (KOSPIE) – Tunisia

Consortium around ivESK wins KOSPIE seats for Tunisian PFE students

German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) has launched a new program for Combined Study and Practics Stays for Engineers from Developing Countries (KOSPIE) for PFE students from Tunisia. Together with other institutes at or around ivESK, 8 fully funded seats are available per year for 2023 till 2025.

Please find detailed in information here: project description.

For information concerning application requirements and application procedure please follow the link: DAAD Sholarship Database
