Why choose Erasmus Mundus as an international student?
It's your unique chance to study at multiple universities in Europe and beyond, earn a joint master's degree and gain priceless academic and cultural experiences.
The Erasmus Mundus Programme is a flagship educational initiative of the European Union, unique in its design and implementation. It allows students to pursue a joint master’s degree by studying at two or more universities in different countries, within Europe and beyond.
Graduates with an Erasmus Mundus degree earn a globally recognised qualification while studying in a multicultural learning environment.
Erasmus+ versus Erasmus Mundus: what's the difference?
Erasmus Mundus is a specific part of Erasmus+, the EU’s overarching programme supporting education, training, youth, and sports.
While Erasmus+ includes many other opportunities, Erasmus Mundus focuses specifically on joint master’s programmes offered by university partnerships.
