In 2018, the Foundation granted yet another scholarship, this time to Magdalena Siwek, who finished her MSci degree in physics and astronomy at the University of Glasgow in 2017. Ms. Siwek has been accepted into the Harvard Graduate School of Arts And Sciences’s Astronomy PhD program, where she works on simulations of supermassive black hole mergers and gravitational wave calculations under the mentorship of Lars Hernquist. She will presumably be graduating in 2023.

Matthias Trefs

2017

Dr. Matthias Trefs, MPA'18

Dr. Matthias Trefs was our second student in Harvard, who has now successfully finished his degree "Master in Public Administration" (MPA). This professional degree requires at least 7 years of work experience before you can apply for the degree course. As this course is a mid-career master, this study is not supported by any German funding grids (DAAD etc.).
