"NRWTalente": New scholarships for 60 pupils from East Westphalia-Lippe

Enabling the best possible educational opportunities for all children and young people in Ostwestfalen-Lippe: This is the goal of the "NRWTalente - Region OWL" school scholarship programme. With the programme, which was launched in summer 2022, Paderborn University, Paderborn University Bielefeld, Bielefeld University of Applied Sciences and OWL University of Applied Sciences want to support motivated, high-achieving pupils, predominantly from non-academic families, in pursuing a successful academic and professional career. The programme is sponsored by the Ministry of Schools and Education of the state of North Rhine-Westphalia and many foundations, companies and private individuals from the region. On Saturday, 29 November, the next 60 scholarship holders will be accepted into the programme with a ceremony in the Audimax of Paderborn University.

Prof Dr Matthias Bauer, President of Paderborn University, and Engelbert Sanders, Head of Division at the Ministry of Schools and Education of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia, will give the welcoming speeches. In a panel discussion, scholarship holders and alumni of the scholarship programme will provide in-depth insights into "NRWTalente - Region OWL" and talk about their expectations and hopes, programme content and support opportunities. The improv theatre "Knall auf Fall" and musical pieces by Zara Akopyan, former student of Paderborn University, will provide variety.

When: Saturday, 29 November, 11.30 a.m.
Where: Auditorium maximum of Paderborn University, 365体育_足球比分网￥投注直播官网 Stra?e 100, 33098 Paderborn, Germany
