Erasmus Mundus Full Scholarships
(This information is valid for student intakes 2025, 2026, 2027, 2028.)
Eligibility:
- The scholarship will be a contribution to the costs incurred by the beneficiary students and shall cover travel, visa, installation and subsistence costs.
- It is calculated on the basis of a monthly unit cost for the entire period needed by the enrolled scholarship holder to complete the study programme. This period covers study, research, placement activities, thesis preparation and defence, in line with the requirement of the joint Master. During this period, the scholarship can only be awarded in full, and to full-time students.
- The scholarship is awarded for full-time enrolment, and will cover the entire duration of the Master programme (max. 24 months).
- EMJM scholarships can be offered to students from all over the world.
The further eligibility criteria apply:
- Students who have previously obtained an EMJM scholarship are not eligible to apply for an additional scholarship under the EMJM. In case of false declarations, the student has to reimburse all scholarships unduly paid and the participation fee of EUR 18 000.
- EMJM must include compulsory physical mobility for all enrolled students (EMJM scholarship-holders or not) consisting of a minimum of two study periods in two countries, of which at least one must be a EU Member State or third country associated to the Programme. These two countries must be different from the country of residence of the student at enrolment stage. Each of the two mandatory study periods must correspond to a workload of at least one academic semester (30 ECTS). For MARIHE, this means: Applicants with their country of residence in Austria or Finland cannot chose the specialization at UWK and TAU.
- Students can apply for an EMJM scholarship to any of the Erasmus+ Erasmus Mundus courses of their choice (EMJM catalogue: http://eacea.ec.europa.eu/erasmus-plus/library/emjmd-catalogue_en). As of January 2022, there is no more official limit for the number of EMJMD programmes that the students can apply for.
Amount of Scholarship:
- The Erasmus Mundus scholarship is calculated as: EUR 1 400/month x duration of the Master programme (in months).
- This means, the maximum amount of the Erasmus Mundus scholarship for the participation in MARIHE as a scholarship holder is EUR 33 600.
Insurance:
- All scholarship holders will receive an insurance meeting the minimum requirement for the health and accident insurance coverage of EMJMD students. The official document setting out these requirements by EACEA is availabe in the Download Section (Other documents).
- MARIHE Consortium registers scholarship holders with an appropriate insurer (group policy). Policy details will be communicated thereafter via E-Mail or MARIHE Moodle to the scholarship holders. Eventual claim management is handled directly between scholarship holders and insurer.
