The Baden-Württemberg-STIPENDIUM
The Baden-Württemberg-STIPENDIUM for University Students is a program established by the Baden-Württemberg Stiftung.
Exchange and collaboration with other international theatre schools and academies is an essential aspect and a crucial objective of the studies at the Akademie für Darstellende Kunst in Baden-Württemberg. ADK’s participation in the programme Baden-Württemberg STIPENDIUM for University Students, run by the Baden-Württemberg Stiftung, recognises ADK’s open, international approach.
With a view to encouraging international exchange among especially qualified students, the Baden-Württemberg Stiftung awards two to three scholarships in every academic year to domestic and foreign students as part of a student exchange (incomings / outgoings) between the Akademie für Darstellende Kunst and our partner institutions abroad. The scholarship is paid for three to six months. Selection criteria include not only academic achievement but also social and intercultural skills.

KOOR – ERASMUS SERVICES BW
is a state-wide institution based at Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences. Founded in 1975, it is now the largest Erasmus consortium in Germany with 41 partners and is primarily responsible for the management and implementation of the Erasmus Internship Programme, the Erasmus Study Programme and Erasmus Staff Mobility on behalf of its consortium partners. ”
Through the consortium partnership of the Akademie für Darstellende Kunst Baden-Württemberg with KOOR – ERASMUS SERVICES BW, some parts of the administrative handling of the ERASMUS+ programme are taken over by them.
Under the umbrella of the EU education programme ERASMUS+ four mobility measures are funded for outgoing students, lecturers and staff of the ADK:
Mobility for Students (SMS)
Internship Mobility (SMP)
Mobility for Lecturers (STA) and Mobility for Staff (STT)
The study abroad programme (SMS) within the framework of Erasmus+ is aimed at students who wish to spend one or two semesters at a host university in another European country and thereby improve their social and cultural skills. In this way, the European Union supports the mobility of students, who thereby become familiar with teaching and learning methods at a foreign university. The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is the national agency responsible for implementing the programme in Germany.
As student of the ADK you are interested in an placement/internship grant (SMP)? The Erasmus+ programme is aimed at students and graduates who are doing an internship in another European country.
Erasmus supports visiting professorships at European partner universities (STA) which hold an Erasmus University Charter. Through their stay, the guest lecturers should strengthen the European dimension of the host university, complement its range of courses and impart their expertise to students who cannot or do not wish to study abroad. The development of joint study programmes of the two partner universities and the exchange of teaching content and methods should be included.
As a further supporting measure for the internationalisation of universities, further education and training (STT) of university staff (teaching and administration) at European universities and foreign companies/institutions is possible.
