Now you can apply for the Erasmus Mundus Scholarships 2023. The Erasmus Scholarship Catalog for the 2022-2023 academic year has been updated. The scholarships are for international students for Masters’s and Ph.D. studies at different European universities in different countries in Europe. All expenses will be covered. No GRE requirements, no need to contact the professor.
Last year they awarded 2,450 scholarships to international students. This year they will support 2,756 scholarship recipients. Erasmus Mundus is one of the most prestigious European scholarships in almost all fields/specialties. Previous labor experience is not required. You will study each semester in different countries and at different universities, as well as do a part-time internship in different countries.
The duration of the scholarship is 2 years for the master’s program and 3 years for the doctoral program. The Erasmus Scholarship is open to any citizen from anywhere in the world.
Studying abroad is a central part of Erasmus Mundus scholarships and has been shown to have a positive effect on later job prospects. It is also an opportunity to improve language skills, gain self-confidence and independence, and immerse yourself in a new culture. Erasmus Mundus also offers the possibility of combining studies abroad with an internship.
For almost 30 years, the European Union has funded the Erasmus Mundus program, which has enabled more than three million European students to spend part of their studies at another higher education institution or with an organization in Europe. Erasmus Mundus offers these opportunities to everyone: students, staff, trainees, teachers, volunteers, and more. It’s not just about Europe or Europeans either: with Erasmus Mundus, people from all over the world can access opportunities.
