- for long-term support
With a foundation or endowment, you can support the work at TUM sustainably during your lifetime and beyond. You decide for which purpose the income from your foundation is used, e.g. for scholarships or prizes for young scientists.
It is easier than setting up a new foundation if you strengthen an existing foundation under the umbrella of TUM or the TUM University Foundation through an endowment. You can claim your support for tax purposes up to an amount specified by law.
- A donation in your will enables you to make an impact beyond your own lifetime
Creating opportunities and shaping the future for generations to come - this is what you can achieve by leaving a legacy to TUM or the TUM University Foundation in your will. In this way, you can support causes that are particularly close to your heart beyond your own lifetime.
Here you will find information on the most important questions about inheritance and bequests.

- In the TUM University Foundation, you can support TUM in a targeted manner as part of a community
Supporting and specifically promoting the strategic development of the Technical University of Munich is the task of the non-profit TUM University Foundation. It quickly and flexibly supports innovative university development projects outside of the state budget. The TUM University Foundation was founded in 2010 by patrons from business and society with the aim of supporting campus projects and programs and giving TUM the financial freedom it needs to react quickly and flexibly to new developments. This funding instrument has created the financial basis for TUM's entrepreneurial activities.
A donation to the University Foundation is an investment in the future of TUM! - A donation that helps to ensure the success of our students, to attract outstanding talent and to advance research - and thus to contribute to answering the pressing questions of our society and to help secure the future of our planet.

With a Deutschlandstipendium scholarship, you support talented students in a very concrete way!
The Deutschlandstipendium program was launched by the German government in 2011, on the one hand to support students and on the other to spread a scholarship culture in Germany.
The scholarship is worth 300 euros per month. Half of this comes from the Federal Ministry of Education and Research, while the other half is financed by donations. The supporters are foundations, associations, companies and private individuals. They not only support the students financially, but also act as mentors and support the young talents with their life, professional and world experience. Since the start of the program, we have been able to award over 7000 scholarships at TUM.
Further information on the Deutschlandstipendium can be found here.
