Erasmus Mundus Scholarship 2027/29: €1,400 Monthly Fully Funded Scholarship
Overview
The Erasmus Mundus Scholarship 2027/29 provides fully funded opportunities for international students to pursue a Master’s degree across multiple universities and countries in Europe and participating partner institutions. Funded by the European Union through the Erasmus+ programme, Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters bring together leading higher education institutions to offer integrated international degree programmes. The study duration ranges from 1 to 2 academic years, involving study periods, research, traineeships, or thesis preparation across at least three institutions from three different countries.
Who can apply
Students from around the world are eligible to apply. Applicants normally must hold a Bachelor's degree or an equivalent first degree, or be in the final year of undergraduate studies provided graduation occurs before the Master's programme begins. Individuals who can demonstrate an officially recognised equivalent level of learning may also qualify based on national rules and programme requirements. Language requirements, such as IELTS or TOEFL, depend entirely on the selected Master's programme and its participating universities rather than following a universal standard.
What you get
Selected scholarship recipients receive financial support calculated at €1,400 per month for a maximum duration of 24 months. This funding covers or contributes toward participation costs, tuition-related expenses, travel expenses, visa-related expenses, and living expenses. Graduates receive either a joint degree or multiple degrees depending on the specific structure of their chosen programme.
Requirements
Applicants must meet the academic and programme-specific admission requirements set by their chosen Master's programme. Common documentation includes a Bachelor's degree certificate or proof of final-year study, academic transcripts, a curriculum vitae, a motivation letter or statement of purpose, letters of recommendation, proof of language proficiency if required, a passport or identification document, and relevant professional or academic certificates. Admission conditions vary by programme, and applicants should review the specific requirements of each individual consortium.
How to apply
Applicants apply directly to the institution or consortium responsible for their chosen programme rather than through a central portal. Candidates begin by exploring the Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters catalogue to identify suitable programmes. Applications for the 2027 academic intake are expected to open in autumn 2026, and candidates should review the application instructions and deadlines for each individual programme separately.
Key dates
The application deadline varies by programme. A new group of programmes is scheduled to open for student applications in autumn 2026 for the 2027 academic intake.
