The scholarship for high potentials from Ukraine was created on the initiative of the Federation of Austrian Industries and Prof. Michael Eichmair, PhD to support talented students from Ukraine. The scholarship recipients are winners of Ukrainian science competitions who are now studying in Austria.
The aim is for highly qualified, motivated and communicative students from Ukraine to bring the expertise they have acquired in their home country in the field of STEM talent development to the Austrian school system. This exciting transfer of knowledge is to take place in the summer of 2024 with the help of workshops developed and held by the students themselves for interested and talented pupils at upper secondary level in STEM subjects.
