Studienförderung für die akademische Nachqualifizierung von Migranten: Fehlanzeige

Abstract: Many of the immigrants currently living in Germany have received academic degrees abroad but nevertheless they face considerable disadvantages with regard to labour market access and the quality of employment – the disadvantages apply especially to female migrants. Recent legislation on the approval of professional qualifications obtained abroad is not applicable to a large proportion of those academic degrees. An alternative entry into the German academic labour market is the partial recognition of studies and exams completed abroad as an entry ticket to a considerably shortened curriculum leading to a German academic degree. However, for those affected there is a lack of provision of livelihood support during enrolment, since in the majority of cases the German mainstream study support programme does not apply.
