HdWM: support and strategically advance an innovative university

Funding Options

What are funding contributions and sponsorships used for?

HdWM is a state-recognized private university offering a diverse range of degree and continuing-education programmes in business and management. The Internationaler Bund (IB), as the majority shareholder of our business school, has made a valuable contribution to shaping the education market for years.

As a private university, we finance ourselves largely through tuition fees, partnerships with companies, and income from continuing education. To keep growing our university, our range of degree programmes, and our continuing education offering sustainably, we welcome further funders, sponsors, and benefactors.

Below, we've put together various ways to fund, donate, or sponsor. Of course, other funding options are also conceivable, so feel free to get in touch.

Ways to Give

Your funding options at HdWM

Funding options at HdWM: endowed professorship, endowed student places, investment in infrastructure, traditional scholarships, special scholarships, unrestricted donation
  1. Endowed professorship
  2. Endowed student places
  3. Investment in infrastructure
  4. Traditional scholarships
  5. Special scholarships
  6. Unrestricted donation
Endowed Professorship
  • Cover the cost of a professorship. By directly funding the salary for a professorship, you secure research and teaching in a subject that matters to you; this can be for an existing chair or a new one.
  • Volume: from €100,000 per year. Duration: from 3 years.
  • Possible individually or as part of a consortium. An individually named chair, recognition of your name in HdWM's print media, on the sponsor board on the HdWM website, and in other places on campus are all possible, as are opportunities to help shape the chair together with HdWM. We're happy to discuss this with you in person.
Endowed Study Places
  • Cover the full tuition fees plus overheads: funding a study place is significantly more than covering tuition fees, since it also contributes to HdWM's core funding. It covers one student's tuition fees plus a contribution toward co-financing the chairs and administration. Support from private benefactors, companies, institutions, and foundations sustainably backs investment in a broad teaching offering, modern infrastructure, and outstanding student support and services across our three fields: Business Management with a focus on Social Entrepreneurship, Business Psychology, and Social Work. Covering the overheads also enables funding programmes that create new opportunities to develop practice-relevant skills for the job market, which in turn benefit your own company.
  • The total cost of a complete endowed study place at HdWM comes to around €25,000 per academic year. An individually named scholarship is possible, as is recognition of your name in HdWM's print media, on the sponsor board on the HdWM website, and in other places on campus. The contribution is tax-deductible as a donation.
Investments in the University's Infrastructure

As an ecologically and socially minded university of the future, HdWM is developing its infrastructure step by step. The priority is advancing sustainability, both in our own university processes and in teaching and research. Examples include equipping our lecture halls with modern technology (flexible room concepts that allow multiple uses), realizing digital teaching and learning concepts that enable high-quality hybrid teaching, and digitalizing our administrative processes. We're happy to discuss this with you in person.

Classic Scholarship

Cover the full tuition fees; HdWM covers the overhead. Become a sponsor. Support "hidden talents" individually. Offer new opportunities to students. HdWM's distinctive study model combines full-time study with a strong practical component. In sponsoring a talent of your choosing, you build a lasting connection. The contribution is tax-deductible as a donation.

Deutschlandstipendium (Germany Scholarship)
  • Support for students and first-year students whose track record suggests outstanding achievement in their studies and career. We deliberately apply a broad definition of merit: alongside good grades, willingness to take on responsibility and overcoming obstacles in one's own life and education path count just as much.
  • Your monthly contribution of €150 is matched by the German government, so your scholarship recipient receives €300 a month. Selection is made by an HdWM selection committee. You can specify a particular field of study. We'll connect you with your scholarship recipient in a proper setting. The contribution is tax-deductible as a donation.
Social Leadership Scholarship

Support for committed students who engage in an exceptional and exemplary way for the common good, both within and beyond the university. The Social Leadership Scholarship is a funding initiative developed with HdWM's partner companies and supporters to honor outstanding student commitment. At the same time, the scholarship is meant to build a network of "social leaders" that lasts beyond graduation, permanently connecting scholarship recipients, university leadership, funders, and donors. This scholarship programme, launched by HdWM, receives no state subsidies. Your contribution is €300 a month. The contribution is tax-deductible as a donation.

General Donation

Strengthen us with unrestricted funds. With strong partners like you at our side, we'll help write the future. Your donation is tax-deductible, and we're happy to issue you a donation receipt.
