The fully financed TU Berlin DAAD EPOS Scholarship 2026, which allows international students to study a Master of Science in Urban Management at the Technische Universität Berlin (TU Berlin), is currently accepting applications. Professionals committed to advancing sustainable development in their home countries are supported by the scholarship, which is funded by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD).
In October 2026, the three-semester curriculum will start, with English serving as the primary medium of instruction. A Bachelor’s degree in a related discipline, at least two years of professional experience, evidence of English language fluency, and a strong commitment to using their urban management knowledge after graduation are requirements for eligibility.
All tuition fees, a monthly living allowance, health and accident insurance, study and research expenses, round-trip travel, and assistance with thesis-related tasks are all covered by the scholarship. A CV, motivation letter, academic transcripts, evidence of professional experience, language test scores, and recommendation letters must be submitted with the DAAD application form. Before the specified date, applications must be sent directly to TU Berlin.
Studying at one of Germany’s most prominent universities and acquiring cutting-edge knowledge to tackle the problems of urbanisation and sustainable city development is a fantastic opportunity.
