Consortium grants for academic years 2025-2027

The emPLANT+ consortium will only recruit self-funded students for the promotion 2025-2027 (5th emPLANT+ intake).

For this 5th promotion, a limited number of partial grants will be awarded based on academic excellence and selection results, covering only part of the tuition fees for the two-year program.

Which means that the students awarded these partial grants will still be responsible for independently covering 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.

Students selected to obtain these partial grants must spend one year in at least one of the following consortium universities:

  • Institut Polytechnique UniLaSalle (ULS) in France
  • Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences (SLU) in Sweden
  • Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) in Spain
  • University of Milano (UMIL) in Italy

Applicants interested in applying for these partial grants must indicate it in the first session for applications. This call is open from November 15, 2024 to February 10th, 2025. Interested applicants must tick a special box in the application form. Before ticking that box, be sure that you can afford to pay all expenses their remaining expenses.

National and International scholarships

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+.
