Erasmus Mundus Action 1

Erasmus Mundus Action 1 offers full-time scholarships for Masters programmes and Doctorate programmes to students coming from any country around the world. These scholarships are exclusively awarded to students that have been selected to attend one of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Programmes at Masters or Doctorate level. Furthermore, the programme offers fellowships to scholars who wish to undertake research assignments or scholarly work in one of the selected Erasmus Mundus Programmes.

In order to benefit from an Erasmus Mundus scholarship/fellowship students and/or scholars should:

  • identify the Erasmus Mundus Joint Programme of their interest
  • present their application to the relevant Consortium of Universities that delivers the Erasmus Mundus course. Applications are usually requested by consortia between the October and December of the year previous to the academic year they wish to start their studies/research.

Detailed information for students on the Erasmus Mundus programme and the lists of the Erasmus Mundus Masters and Doctorates that offer scholarships can be found on the European Commission's Erasmus Mundus website.  Please click here to visit the official Erasmus Mundus webpage for students.

Our Erasmus Mundus FACT SHEET also contains further information on the programme and useful links.
