The emPLANT consortium will only recruit self-funded students for the promotion 2026-2028 (9th emPLANT intake).

For this 9th promotion, a limited number of partial grants will be awarded based on academic excellence and selection results, covering only part of the tuition fees or living expenses for the two-year program.

Which means that the students awarded these partial grants will still be responsible for independently covering the remaining tuition fees, their own travel expenses, administrative fees, living expenses, and all other personal expenses during the two years of the emPLANT program.

Please note that these partial scholarships are highly selective and are only intended for a small number of students.

5 partial scholarships will be granted to the 5 best ranked applicants.

• 3 partial tuition fee scholarships: selected students must be able to pay the remaining tuition fees as well as their living, administrative and travel expenses in Europe during two years.
• 2 partial living expenses scholarships: selected students must be able to pay the remaining living expenses as well as their administrative and travel expenses in Europe during two years and the full tuition fees for each academic year.

That is why this call for applications is only open to self-funding applicants.

No other scholarships will be available.

All other students will have to pay for the full tuition fees as well as their living and travel expenses during the lifetime of the programme.

Private companies or Public institutions may offer some grants to students under given conditions. emPLANT+ consortium will indicate on its website whether such scholarships are available as well as the conditions to be met to access those private grants. You can also solicit on your side different seed companies in order to be financed during your studies.

In any case, such applicants have to apply normally and follow the same selection process as others. They will be evaluated according to the same criteria and ranked accordingly. Finally they need to appear at least in a complementary list to be accepted.

Some students can receive grants from:

• their government
• their University of origin
• their local administrations: Please consult your local authorities for further details about these grants

Several grants exist in Europe so if you’re a prospective international student planning to study in Europe at master’s level (such as emPLANT+), you might be eligible for a scholarship.

Please check the different possibilities on the Campus France website and Top Universities website.

If you are concerned by one of the possible scholarship and meet all requirements, we invite you to apply for one of those scholarships independently from your application to emPLANT+.
