Study Scholarships
Erasmus Mundus scholarships for the EMJM Janus are full scholarships that make the programme financially accessible to outstanding candidates. Up to 20 Scholarships are offered for the 2027-2029 cohort.
What does the scholarship cover?
- Participation costs: tuition fees are paid directly from the grant, so scholarship holders do not pay tuition fees.
- Monthly allowance: €1,400 per month for 24 months (€33,600 in total), covering accommodation, daily costs and local transport in the host countries throughout the two-year master.
What is the amount of the scholarship?
Each JANUS Erasmus Mundus scholarship provides a monthly allowance of €1,400 for 24 months, for a total of €33,600 over the full length of the programme.
Tuition and other participation costs are financed separately within the overall grant, so scholarship holders do not pay programme fees directly.
Who can receive a scholarship and for how long?
Scholarships are open to academically excellent students from all countries who are admitted to the JANUS programme, and are awarded on the basis of academic excellence, the quality and coherence of the application, and the overall merit of the candidate’s profile.
Students who have already benefited from a previous Erasmus Mundus Joint Master (EMJM) scholarship are not eligible to receive another EMJM scholarship.
Tailored Support for Individual Needs
Contributions to Individual Needs
Two dedicated Erasmus Mundus “individual needs” scholarships are available in JANUS, each with a maximum budget of €60,000 to support students with disabilities or long‑term health conditions. This funding is reserved for enrolled students (with or without an Erasmus Mundus scholarship) who have long‑term physical, mental, intellectual or sensory impairments that make special adaptations necessary to participate fully in the programme.
Contributions to individual needs must comply with the general eligibility conditions of the EMJM grant agreement and can be used, for example, to finance assistance by a third person, adaptation of the study or work environment (equipment, software, accessibility measures), or additional travel and transportation costs linked to the student’s disability. The support takes the form of unit costs, with predefined amounts ranging from €3,000 up to €60,000 per student, depending on the level and type of support required, and complements the standard Erasmus Mundus scholarship or self‑funding arrangements
