DAAD Regional Office Jakarta

The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) is a joint organization of German institutions of higher education and student bodies. The DAAD Regional Office Jakarta opened in 1990, documenting the long tradition of Indonesian-German ties in higher education.

With a constant increase over the past years of Indonesians studying in Germany, Indonesia is one of the target countries in a joint initiative to attract highly qualified international students and high-calibre researchers. Also universities from both countries show an ever stronger interest in building and extending mutual collaboration. The DAAD has been supporting academic exchange between Germany and Indonesia for decades, providing long-term fellowships as well as short-term research grants, supporting guest professorships and helping to establish university collaborations.
