In fact, there is nothing special to pay attention to, just provide the information according to the requirements of Humboldt website. Of course, the premise is that you have to find at least one host to receive you.

Humboldt is not a project in essence, but a bonus. So there is no need to submit a conclusion report after completion.

Note that there are two kinds of Humboldt scholarships, one is for less than five years after doctoral graduation, and the other is for more than five years but less than fifteen years (experience scholarship). The latter has a higher salary.

Humboldt can bring his family. Wife and children can go, and there are extra subsidies.

It is best to have a recommendation letter from a German, especially one related to Humboldt.

Finally, whether you can go to school depends mainly on your scientific research ability. Everything else is secondary.

After getting the approval notice, you can apply for a visa with this. Prepare materials for yourself and your family. Generally, this kind of visa is approved quickly and generously, and it can grant multiple entry visas for up to one year (not a Schengen visa, but you can still walk in Schengen countries without barriers).

Humboldt has many benefits, which I will gradually realize after applying.

The competition may be fierce. Generally, China will not exceed three fields a year. I attended the annual meeting of Humboldt Foundation held in Beijing last year. Many participants have "hats" after returning to China (the young are Siqing, the old are Xieqing, Changjiang and even academicians).

Humboldt Fund 1860 was established in Berlin in memory of alexander von humboldt, a great German natural scientist and scientific traveler.

Before 1923, Humboldt Fund only supported German scholars to conduct scientific investigations abroad. After 1925, the fund turned to support foreign scientists and doctoral students to study in Germany.

1945, the foundation stopped its activities. According to the initiative of former Humboldt scholars, the Foundation was re-established by the Federal Republic of Germany in 1953 12 10 (with legal personality), and its office is located in Goltsberg, Bonn.

In the following year, the Foundation provided 75 research scholarships. Since then, nearly 14000 scholars from more than 100 countries have received its funding.
