About the foundations
This is a compilation of all foundations managed by KTH. When a foundation is announced (open for application), it can be found on the pages Scholarship announcements for students and Scholarship announcements for employees . You need to log in to have access to the announcements.
Approximately 90 foundations, formed through generous donations to KTH over the years, are currently managed by KTH. The purpose of each foundation is stated in the statute of each individual foundation. The largest group of KTH affiliated foundations, comprising around 50 foundations, awards scholarships for studies to undergraduate students. Among this group is found the oldest of the foundations managed by KTH, which made a donation back in 1866. For these donations, scholarship foundations were created for students without means who distinguish themselves through diligence, natural ability and honourable conduct. These foundations still award scholarships to KTH students (general student scholarships).
Some 30 foundations award travel grants to lecturers, researchers and doctoral students regardless of the field of study. Other foundations contribute to the research activity within a particular branch of KTH's research.
One of the largest foundations managed by KTH is The KTH Great Prize, taken from the proceeds of a donation made in 1944, which awards the KTH Great Prize each year. The donor, who wished to be and has remained anonymous, has stipulated that the prize shall be awarded to a Swedish citizen who through epoch-making discoveries, ingenious applications or artistic activity has been of national importance.
