DAAD Prize for Daria Kohut

This year’s German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) Award for International Students goes to Daria Kohut. She has been enrolled in the Data Science bachelor’s program at MIDS since October 2024 and is very active outside of her studies. Not only is she a member of the Data Science student council, but she also regularly participates in competitions and hackathons.

On its website, the DAAD states that the award “is intended to help put faces to the large numbers of international students at German universities and connect them with their stories. This highlights that every single international student takes a piece of Germany back to their home country and leaves a piece of themselves in Germany—an enrichment for both sides.”

We are very proud to have such dedicated students as Daria in our program and are delighted that she is receiving this recognition through this year’s DAAD Award.
