The Deutsche Akademische Austauschdienst (DAAD) is Germany's leading institution supporting international studies in Germany.

The Esslingen Graduate School has been a premium member of the DAAD since its inception, and we have benefitted greatly from the highly-qualified and motivated students that have come to us from across the world through the DAAD.

In its turn, the DAAD has recognized the excellence of the Esslingen programs, and in 2015, its film "Ingenieurwissenschaften in Deutschland" highlighted its #1 program, Esslingen's M.Eng. in Automotive Systems.

The following students received an award for their outstanding master's thesis

The DAAD Award is given to students with a high academic standing and strong social skills. It is only awarded to students from a foreign country. Our award winners from programme inception are listed below.
