Our university has been awarded with the Federal Foreign Office's award for excellent support for international students in Germany. Our programme "Guest Studies Plus for Music, Dance and Theatre Students from Ukraine" received the award, which is endowed with 30,000 euros. The prize from the Federal Foreign Office is one of the most important awards for supporting international students in Germany.

The programme "Guest Studies Plus for Music, Dance and Theatre Students from Ukraine" was launched at HMTM in April 2022, shortly after the start of the Russian war against Ukraine. With the aim of quickly integrating refugee Ukrainian students in the fields of music, dance and theatre into everyday university life in Munich, support and assistance was established in various areas. For example, the students quickly received individual artistic tuition and were able to take part in specific courses. HMTM also provided support in the form of accommodation, free meals, repairs and the provision of instruments, as well as a German-Ukrainian mentor network and language courses to help the Ukrainian students to settle in.
