21 Jun 2011
Three Russian students will receive an Erasmus Mundus scholarship from the European Union (EU) to study a Masters’ programme in the Netherlands.
In total 62 students from Russia have been admitted to universities in Europe to study on Erasmus Mundus Masters’ courses as of September 2011. Aside from Holland students study in (amongst others) France, Germany, Spain and UK.
All students will receive an EU funded scholarship of at least 24,000 Euro per year to cover travel costs, insurance, tuition fees, accommodation and living costs.
The three Russians heading to the Netherlands are going to study at the University of Amsterdam (Joint European Master in International Migration and Social Cohesion), the Universiteit Leiden (International Integrated Master Course in Algebra, Geometry and Number Theory) and the UNESCO-IHE Institute for Water Education (International Master of Science in Environmental Technology and Engineering).
During an Erasmus Mundus Masters’ course, students study for 24 months (four semesters) in two or three EU Member States (and EEA countries).
