Since 1983 the Foundation, created by the British Chamber
of Commerce in Germany, offers scholarships to British and
German students who plan to study in the other’s country.
It is managed independent of BCCG.
As an example, through generous donations by business and
many individuals, the Foundation was able to assist four
students in 2011 (and one Anglo-German Club Award Winner) in reaching their goal of attaining
academic know-how and general life experience in the other
country.
The particular, long lasting contribution by British
Airways also calls for special mention in their providing
award winners with free flights to enable an easier
take-off in life.
Through this exchange of talented, ambitious, young
students, the Foundation makes a significant contribution
for the British Chamber of Commerce in Germany, which sets
out to intensify the already very intensive business and
cultural activities between the United Kingdom and
Germany.
Students’ reports written on completion of their stay
abroad, repeatedly emphasize that in addition to the
valuable academic know-how acquired, new friendships and
social contacts play an extremely important role in what
at first seems a very foreign environment.
Here are some reports from students 2010:
We welcome our new foundation award winners 2011:
Ulrike
Grassinger, Thomas Graeber (Anglo-German Club Award
Winner), David Molyneux, Artur Swierczok, Marie
Tolkiehn.
Congratulations and best wishes from the BCCG Management
& Team!
