Digital GreenTalents Award 2025 – High Potentials in Sustainable Development
The German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) is looking for highly motivated and talented young scientists from all over the world to find solutions to these urgent issues and contribute to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The Award focuses on how digitalization can promote greater sustainability in science and society. Aspiring young scientists are invited to Germany for a three-month research stay to turn their ideas and ambitions into reality.
The award does not fund research projects, but aims to foster individual development. A high-level jury of German experts will help the ministry in selecting 20 high-potentials to be honored as this year’s “Digital GreenTalents“.
What are the requirements?
- Current enrolment in a PhD programme or current enrolment in the last year of a master’s program
- (PhD) research topics applying digital methods for sustainability
- Age: up to 30 years (exceptions are possible, see FAQs)
- Very good knowledge of English
- Above average grades
- Interest and commitment to actively participate in all parts of the Digital GreenTalents programme
