    REINER MORELL: DAAD INFORMATION CENTRE IS AN IMPORTANT TOOL TO HELP ARMENIAN STUDENTS STUDY IN GERMANY

    The DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service) Information Centre is an
    important tool to help the Armenian students get education in Germany,
    Germany's Ambassador to Armenia Reiner Morell said at today's opening
    of the event dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the DAAD Information
    Centre in Armenia.

    He said that 10 years is quite a long period to receive tangible
    results. In this context, the Ambassador thanked Tine Laufer, Director
    of the Centre, for the work done.

    Ambassador Morell said that DAAD provides Armenian students with an
    opportunity to study or continue education in Germany. He stressed
    that education is one of the fundamental keys to success. He added
    that Armenian students can get worthy education in Germany.

    Tine Laufer, in turn, said that part of the scholarships is provided
    to the students, and the other part is provided to the researchers.

    Last year 102 applicants received scholarships. "There are no data
    for 2014 yet. We will have the final results in two weeks", she said.

    She also pointed out that DAAD invests over EUR 1.6 million in Armenia
    per annum. Since Armenia gained independence, over 2200 residents
    of the country received scholarships under DAAD educational and
    research programs.

    DAAD has been operating in Armenia since 1990. The DAAD Information
    Centre (IC) in Yerevan opened in 2004, and serves as a point of contact
    for all issues concerning cooperation between Germany and Armenia in
    the field of Higher Education. The IC represents the DAAD in Armenia
    and is one of 48 Information Centres worldwide.

    DAAD representatives in Armenia inform students, graduates and
    researchers from Armenia about study and research in Germany as well
    as about scholarships and funding opportunities; advise candidates
    for scholarships (DAAD and other German funding organizations);
    support German scholars and university teachers while their stay in
    Armenia and give information about study and research in Armenia;
    counsel and support universities in Armenia in building partnerships
    and cooperation with German universities.
