Scholars@Risk

TU Berlin has a special tradition of supporting scientists and prospective academics who have had to give up their livelihoods and leave their home countries due to wars and political persecution. This is not only a self-evident duty for historical reasons; rather, with the initiative Scholars@Risk, it clearly takes a stand on the international situation.

Scholars@Risk

As a member of the Scholars at Risk Network (SAR), TU Berlin supports scientists and researchers who are seeking protection with their families from the threats and persecution in their home countries. We assist in arranging scholarships and help them in finding temporary guest residencies at TU departments so that they can continue their research in freedom and know that their families are safe.

SAR is an international association of more than 400 universities, research institutions and other scientific organisations in 39 countries that work together to protect scientists threatened or persecuted by repression and to strengthen scientific freedom worldwide. In 2016, the German section SAR Germany was founded under the auspices of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation in Bonn.

Services for Refugee Scienticts

All over the world, scientists are threatened and restricted in their scientific work because of their opinions, ideas and research. Many have no choice but to leave their home countries due to political persecution or war. The Department of Transnational Education and International Knowledge Transfer (INT TNB) assists in the search for guest residencies at departments of the TU Berlin in order to independently continue research projects in safety and freedom, in the nomination for scholarships as well as in the application for research funding.
