Applications are currently being accepted for the 2024 Austrian Development Cooperation Scholarships
Applications are currently being accepted for the 2024 Austrian Development Cooperation Scholarships, which aim to assist students from developing countries with their tuition fees and living expenses. These scholarships are provided annually by the Austrian Development Cooperation and are available to students from both ADC’s priority countries and other developing nations.
The scholarships are specifically designated for the Diploma Course offered by the Institute of Tourism and Hotel Management (ITH). This comprehensive course comprises three main modules: a General Module, a Professional Module focusing on either Hospitality Management or Tourism Management, and an Elective Module offering options such as Entrepreneurship or Teacher Training.
Students interested in attending the ITH have the option to finance their education privately or through scholarships offered by the Austrian Development Cooperation. However, it’s important to note that the number of scholarships awarded each year is limited, and the selection process is highly competitive. Merely applying for a scholarship does not guarantee its receipt.
