International Summer and Spring Schools
You want to get a taste of living abroad during the semester break and broaden your academic horizon? Then the numerous short-term programs offered by many institutions worldwide during the spring or summer breaks might just be right for you. They are short, intensive courses on a specific topic or subject which take place over four weeks, for example. You will often be able to obtain ECTS credits that can possibly be recognized for your program of study at the University of Mannheim.
Fees
Funding through the DAAD Go-East summer school program
The DAAD offers considerable funding for summer schools in Middle or Eastern European countries as part of the GO-EAST Summer School program. Funding is available for the following countries: Albania, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirghistan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldavia, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Ukraine and Hungary.
Funding includes a partial scholarship and a grant for travel expenses (depending on the country) as well as a grant for the summer school fee of up to EUR 650.
More information on the application process can be found on the DAAD Go-East website (only available in German).
We are not aware of any other scholarships.
Application
Applications have to submitted directly to the respective institution. There is no nomination or registration carried out by the International Office of the University of Mannheim. This is especially important to keep in mind if the partner institution offers free participation in the summer school via exchange study places. Participating in this way is generally not possible, since the study places including an exemption from tuition fees are only used for the regular exchange programs at the University of Mannheim.
In exceptional cases, individual Mannheim schools (e.g. SOWI) actively inform their students about Summer School offers from partner universities for which a reduction in fees has been agreed and a nomination is made by the Mannheim faculty. Further information can be obtained from the contact persons of your school.

During my master's degree, I spent one month in Singapore to visit a summer university on “Entrepreneurial Accounting & Finance“ at Nanyang Technological University. I could not only expand my knowledge on topics relating to incorporating start-up companies, but also had the chance to learn a lot about cultural differences in incorporating and managing start-ups in Southeast Asia and China. Besides, it was impressive to get to know the city state of Singapore with its political and cultural particularities.
