Euroculture is a two-year Erasmus Mundus master’s in the humanities and social sciences, run by a consortium of European universities. Students choose a partner university to enrol at, Uppsala University in Sweden among them (start around 1 September). The scholarship round for the 2027-2029 intake opens on 15 October 2026.
The scholarship
- The Erasmus Mundus scholarship covers all participation costs and waives tuition fees, with EUR 1,400 per month for living costs over 24 months (EUR 33,600 in total) and health insurance.
- Applicants without a scholarship can still join as self-funded students with later deadlines (1 May 2027 recommended for non-EU/EEA applicants).
- There is no application fee.
Requirements
- An accepted English test (for example IELTS Academic overall 6.5, no section below 6.5) or a listed exemption; only results from the providers listed on the programme website are accepted.
- Applicants of most nationalities are eligible for the scholarship.
- A first higher education degree or recognised equivalent by the scholarship deadline, in a relevant humanities or social science field (for example international relations, European studies, history, sociology, political science, international or European law). An official document confirming completion is enough; the diploma itself is not required by then.
- A complete application through the Euroculture Online Application Tool, with two referees answering an online questionnaire.
- People who already received an Erasmus Mundus scholarship at Joint Master or PhD level are not eligible for another one.
