“Attract, select, and fund excellence.”
The iPSRS programme benefits from the financial support of the European Union and is funded through an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master programme. This support allows us to implement a very attractive scholarship strategy to attract the best students.
Thanks to this support, all selected applicants benefit from a 100% fee-waivers to join the iPSRS programme.
Erasmus Mundus scholarships can be offered to students from any region of the world; however, in order to ensure geographical balance, no more than 6 scholarships per nationality will be awarded over the five editions, which is 10% of the total number (60) of regular scholarships available during the project implementation (5 editions).
In addition to the 60 ‘regular’ scholarships, we also have funding to award up to 20 additional scholarships over the five editions, which are targeted at certain regions. Note: the geographical rule of 10% stated above is not applicable to the additional, targeted scholarships.
The targeted regions for the 20 additional scholarships, as specified by the European Commission, are: Regions 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. These scholarships are financed by the EU’s external action instruments.
This distinction reflects the rationale of financial instruments of European Union external action, our main financial sponsor.
The table below shows the tuition fees, the fee waivers and scholarships that can be granted to students accepted in the iPSRS master. The scholarships are not cumulative and are awarded depending on the iPSRS applications ranking and according to the EACEA rules (no more than 10% of the scholarship granted to students of the same nationality, all editions combined, except targeted region).
All students that apply before the deadline, will be automatically considered for
all scholarships mentioned in the table below.
