The Max Kade Foundation takes pride in participating and sponsoring various programs which encourage the exchange of academic ideas among universities and colleges both here in the United States and in German-speaking countries.

In this ever-changing global society the fostering of cross-cultural understanding has become more important than ever before.

The Foundation supports initiatives which promote international understanding by sponsoring exchange programs between Germany, Austria and the United States such as post-doctoral research exchange programs, visiting faculty exchange programs, and exchange programs of undergraduate and graduate students both here and abroad.
