Erasmus Mundus scholarships
EM scholarships will be available for 4 intakes, starting with the 2027–2029 cohort.
The EMJM scholarships are including student participation costs (including the tuition fees, full insurance coverage and any other mandatory costs related to student participation in the course) and a subsistence allowance for the entire duration of the EMJM study programme.
Caution: Geographical balance is taken into account: Maximum 10% of (regular) scholarships awarded to students of the same nationality.
Details on the EMJM student scholarship amounts are given in the table below:
| Contribution type | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| University fees (participation costs) | 10.000€/year per Non-EU student | 5.000€/year per EU student | |
| Subsistence allowance | 1.400€ /month for the entire duration of the EMJM study programme (= 24 months) |
EU students: 27 EU Countries and Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.
Non-EU students: all nationalities not included in the "EU students" category.
The subsistence allowance of 1.400€/month (covering travel, visa, installation and subsistence costs) for the entire duration of the programme is calculated pro-rata to the student’s actual attendance in the programme (maximum 24 months) => maximum amount per student 1.400€ x 24 = 33.600€.
