SRH Scholarships for Young Entrepreneurs

Funding

Invest more time in your own business

As a young business owner, it’s not easy to manage a degree at the same time – and financing it in addition to your own company is a real challenge! As an entrepreneur-friendly university, SRH University Heidelberg makes financing easier for young business owners through an SRH Scholarship so that they can devote themselves fully to their studies and their business idea.
