"I've chosen this program since for me it was very interesting to realise how exactly South European countries, not all of them, but Spain and Italy overcome authoritarian regime and became democratically consolidated countries. the reason why I am keen on that topic, because of my home country current political circumstance. I hope to implement my gained knowledge to contribute my country development. Additional point is my deep love and fascination toward Spanish language  and Turkish culture, so that program provides me chance not only to study them, but live as well."

Deadline for ALL scholarship applications
Applicants informed of scholarships decision
Deadline for unsuccessful scholarship applicants to secure place on programme
End May to mid-June 2022
After the consortium has received the final approval on the selection from the European Commission the scholarship applicants on the main list and reserve list will receive the final results of their applications.
25 July 202231 August 2022
International applications (non-EU): 25 July 2022
UK and EU applications: 31 August 2022
Programme offers will be made on a rolling basis.
Unsuccessful scholarship applicants who are able to self-fund will be given four weeks from the announcement of the scholarship results to pay a £500 deposit. Applications for a self-funded place submitted after the scholarship deadline closes will have to pay a £500 deposit, the deadline for which will be detailed on your offer letter.
All applications are subject to an eligibility check which covers all aspects of the application: respect of the application deadline, completeness of the application file, eligibility of the candidate in relation to the Erasmus Mundus criteria. Applicants who fail to provide necessary documentation by the appropriate deadline will be excluded from the application procedure and will be informed of the specific reason for ineligibility.
To be eligible to be considered for scholarship, students must first have secured a place on the degree programme (unconditional or conditional). The University of Glasgow postgraduate admissions office assesses all applications and will reply directly to the applicant to let them know if they have been offered a place. Applicants who receive an offer of a place on the degree programme, and who have submitted the scholarship application on time, will be put forward to the scholarship competition.
The EUROSUD consortium selection committee assess each application according to the following criteria:
Academic merit (e.g. relevance and level of academic qualifications) - 30%
Supporting personal statement - 40%
Quality of (academic) references - 10%
Other (e.g. relevant research/professional experiences/interests) - 20%
When a main list scholarship student withdraws, he/she is replaced by the first eligible candidate on the reserve list. In this particular case, the eligibility criterion concerns the nationality of the reserve list candidate and the rule concerning the presence of a maximum of three nationals from the same country among the scholarship holders in each intake. If there are already three other students with the same nationality on the main list, the consortium will have to take the next eligible candidate respecting its own ranking list (European Commission’s regulations).
Appeal procedure for candidates who fail to secure a scholarship
All candidates will be notified of the decision of the scholarship selection committee by email only in April. Candidates who do not secure a scholarship and who wish to appeal the decision of the scholarship selection committee must do so in writing by email within 2 weeks (14 days) from the point of notification by the EUROSUD consortium of their failure to win a scholarship. The email should be addressed to the EUROSUD consortium at the following address: eurosud@glasgow.ac.uk. The email subject heading should contain the words “EUROSUD scholarship appeal”. The reasons for the appeal must be clearly stated in the email. Note: A candidate may appeal ONLY on the grounds of defective or unfair procedure by the EUROSUD scholarship selection committee.
General principles and regulations
EMJMD student scholarships cover the entire duration of the Master course and are awarded exclusively for full-time enrolment in the course. Scholarship candidates must have already obtained a first higher education degree or demonstrate a recognised equivalent level of learning according to national rules and legislation in place. Candidates who will only obtain their first higher education degree at the end of the academic year preceding the EMJMD intake can nevertheless apply for a scholarship and can be selected by the consortium, under the condition that the student obtains the required degree prior to the beginning of the Master course.
Students who are former Action 1 Erasmus Mundus Master/Doctoral Course scholarship holders are not eligible for an additional EMJMD scholarship. Successful applicants cannot benefit from another EU grant while pursuing the EMJMD scholarship studies.
EMJMD scholarship holders must spend at least two complete mobility periods in at least two of the consortium’s full HEI partners which are located in different Programme Countries. Each of these mandatory mobility periods must include a volume of study/research or equivalent corresponding to at least 30 ECTS.
The mandatory mobility periods cannot be replaced by virtual mobility neither can they take place in institutions outside the consortium
Additional study/research/thesis preparation/placement periods can take place in other participating organisations in the consortium (partner and associated partner) under the condition that the activities concerned are implemented under the direct supervision of the consortium partner.
Contribution to subsistence costs will not be given to scholarship holders from a Partner Country for periods exceeding three months of the EMJMD spent in any Partner Country.
Contribution to subsistence costs will not be given to scholarship holders for periods of the EMJMD spent in their country of residence.
Nationality, residency and the 12 month rule
Scholarships are dependent on both nationality and residency.
Students with a double nationality (of a Partner and of a Programme Country) must specify the nationality under which they submit their scholarship application.
When determining the contribution to participation costs, the consortium defines the student category – either Programme Country or Partner Country. The definition of the student category depends on his/her nationality and on whether the student resided in a Programme Country for more than 12 months over the last five years before applying (applicable only to students with Partner Country nationality). Therefore:
Students whose nationality is one of the Erasmus+ Programme Countries count as Programme Country students.
Students whose nationality is one of the Erasmus+ Partner Countries and who are not residents nor have carried out their main activity (studies, training or work) for more than a total of 12 months over the last five years in a Programme Country are considered as Partner Country students. The five year reference period for this 12 month rule is calculated backwards from the submission deadline.
Students whose nationality is one of the Erasmus+ Partner Countries who do not fulfil the Partner Country criteria defined above (12 month rule) count as Programme Country students.
Example: a Georgian student who lived in Germany for 13 months, 3 years before the deadline date should apply as a Programme Country student; a Mexican student who has been living in Spain for 11 months as of the deadline date (and never before in the 5 year period) should apply as a Partner Country student.
The contribution to travel and installation costs takes into account only the residence (as of the deadline date) of the scholarship holder regardless of the category under which the student has applied.
Students offered a scholarship will be required to provide proof of residency
a residence certificate issued in accordance with the candidate’s municipality normal registration rules
a certificate from the candidate’s place of work, study or training issued by the employer or institution in question.
Both documents must have been issued within 12 months before the scholarship submission deadline.
