OBW Student Research Program in Germany - Summer 2026

OBW Summer Research Program (Students) - drop-in information session
Join a drop-in information session hosted by York University and University of Konstanz, the coordinating institutions of the Ontario/Baden-Württemberg Summer Research Program. The OBW Summer Research Program is open to Ontario graduate and undergraduate students in science, engineering, and health science disciplines. Each successful applicant will spend two to three calendar months in the summer at a university in Baden-Württemberg engaged in research projects relevant to their studies in Ontario. Scholarships are in the amount of CAD 3,000 for two months, and 4,000 for three months, and many be combined with other funding (e.g. Mitacs Globalink Research Award).
Applicants to this program are eligible for scholarship support from OBW (available to Canadian citizens and permanent residents only). Undergraduate students must be in at least the second year of their studies when applying, and graduate students may apply at any stage of their studies. German language ability is not required.
Students must find a potential host professor at one of the nine universities in Baden-Württemberg.
