Those who have good grades, can be studied at German universities for 300 euros a month to get support - the money for companies and the state bere.

If the OECD, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, its annual report on form submit, then Germany regularly gets low marks on one point: there are too few in the Federal Republic of academics, there is a lack of skilled labor.

The proportion of graduates in the population aged between 25 and 64 years is 26 percent. This means that Germany is indeed followed by Austria (19 percent), but below the OECD average (30 percent).

As before, the path leads to the University in Germany, mostly on the wallets of parents. The income of an average student is put together according to a survey of German students work together as follows: 48 percent control with Mama and Papa, 26 percent have their own merit, 15 percent BafoG (state support), and eleven percent come from other sources.

"We want to create a scholarship in Germany at last culture," says Education Minister Annette Schavan (CDU). Because this is in contrast to the U.S. or Japan in the Federal Republic is not very pronounced.

To pave the way for more young people to universities, the German Federal Government called Germany 2011, the scholarship has introduced. It is 300 € per month and is paid to gifted and industrious student, so to those who have above-average scores, and provided also a special personal power have - "about the successful overcoming of obstacles in their own educational biography," as in The guidelines say.

Promotion for foreigners

That means: promoting Worthy is someone who has worked its way from humble beginnings to the university. Also welcome are students engaged in voluntary work. Irrelevant, however, is the financial background of candidates.

Of interest to Austrians: The Germany-grant is not only Germans, and foreigners can apply. Chances are also not bad because the funding was in the first semester (Fall 2011) not yet used to the extent as the German government had hoped. The big run is in the initial phase failed to materialize. The money paid out at least two semesters and a maximum until the end of the study period. It is financed not only by the State, for the first time in Germany are also called private institutions to participate.

The federal government gives 150 euros, the other half is controlled by companies that can sell their share of the tax. The average private provider must collect the individual universities themselves. Who encourages students must have a say in the use of a word means. This allows companies to let their money flow into a specific subject area. However, this is possible only when two thirds of the funding. More than a third, the universities can have free. The Ministry of Education in Berlin, one is convinced by the concept. The financing of higher education is not solely the responsibility of the state. The whole society must take on more responsibility.
