About this opportunity
The Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters PlantHealth is a fully integrated double degree in plant health within sustainable cropping systems, designed by leading European universities in crop protection and taught across two countries. Scholarships for the 2027/2029 intake, numbered as intake 12, cover participation costs in full, meaning 100% of tuition fees, full insurance and mandatory academic costs.
Successful scholars also receive a stipend of €1,400 a month for up to 24 months to help with travel, visa, installation and living costs. The consortium recruits up to 30 well-motivated students from all over the world each intake, and the scholarship route is open to both EU and non-EU students, with additional scholarships often reserved for students from specific priority regions.
Studying in two different countries among Spain, Italy, France and Germany leads to a double diploma. The call for applications opened on 1 October 2026 and closes on 31 December 2026, both on Central European time.
Applicants register on the PlantHealth online application form.
