Institutional Funding

The DAAD offers Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam different programmes to support cooperation initiatives with HEIs in Germany.

Foreign universities can benefit significantly by participating as partner institutions. These programmes not only create opportunities to expand international academic cooperation but also contribute to enhancing the quality of teaching and research, promoting faculty and student exchanges, and developing joint projects between German and Vietnamese partners.

However, it is the German institution that must apply for DAAD funding. HEIs in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam interested in obtaining funding for cooperation projects with German institutions can propose the application for these funds to their partners in Germany and work together on the proposal for the DAAD.
