Erasmus scholarship

By applying to the BIOPHAM Master program during the first call, you automatically apply for an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) scholarship.

By applying to BIOPHAM during the second call for application, you apply as a self-funded student.

GENERAL PRINCIPLES

Both Programme Country students and Partner Country students are eligible for EMJMD scholarships (see Erasmus + programme guide )

• The student candidate / scholarship holder declares to not have already benefited from a previous EMJMD scholarship or an Erasmus Mundus Master Course/Joint Doctorate scholarship.

• The student candidate / scholarship holder commits to not benefit from another EU funded scholarship scheme to follow the same EMJMD course for the entire period of the course.

• Programme country students with an EMJMD scholarship are not allowed to benefit from the scholarship when they are in their country of residence for either study, research, placement or thesis preparation.

• Candidates can apply for an EMJMD scholarship to any of the Erasmus+ Erasmus Mundus courses of their choice.

• The scholarship candidates on the reserve list can receive an Erasmus Mundus scholarship only in case of withdrawal of a student from the main list.

• There cannot be more than three nationals from the same country among the scholarship holders for a given category of students (Programme/Partner Country).

• The financial support shall be repaid by the scholarship holder in case of fraud or false declaration.
