GLOCAL Erasmus Mundus Scholarship 2027-2029 (Fully Funded)

The GLOCAL Erasmus Mundus Scholarship is a fully funded, two-year International Masters Program in "Global Markets, Local Creativities." Funded by Erasmus Mundus and the European Union, the program is set to begin in September 2027. Students will study at three different partner universities across various countries during the program, offering a blend of lectures, seminars, internships, and thesis opportunities.

This is a fully-funded scholarship covering your full tuition fees for the entire Master’s program. It includes health and accident insurance, a monthly living allowance of €1,400, and an optional contribution towards travel and installation costs.

This scholarship is open to students from all countries, including Ethiopia. Applicants must hold a Bachelor’s degree or an equivalent qualification that meets GLOCAL’s academic entry requirements. Students who are still completing their degree are eligible to apply, provided they meet the program’s requirements for submitting final degree documentation. Applicants must also meet the English language proficiency requirements of the program and have an academic background relevant to their chosen GLOCAL study track. You must choose only one GLOCAL study track for your application.

To apply, you will need a Bachelor's degree or equivalent, proof of English language proficiency, and an academic background relevant to your chosen study track. You must submit a Supporting Personal Statement of no more than 1,200 words, detailing your motivation, academic background, career plans, relevant experience, and potential Master’s thesis area. If you have significant work experience after graduation, you should explain how it relates to the program and your reasons for returning to academic study. Required documents for upload include: a completed application form (clearly stating your preferred study track), your CV, two supporting references, transcripts of all university-level academic studies to date, degree certificates, and a color scan of your current passport photo page.

All applications must be submitted through the University of Glasgow’s online application system. First, create an account and log into the application portal.
