Erasmus Mundus Joint MSc Scholarships for European students
The deadline for European students to apply for Erasmus Mundus full scholarships to study water-related topics at IHE Delft and partner institutions is approaching. IHE Delft is part of four Erasmus Mundus Master’s programmes that address global water challenges, including environmental degradation, floods and droughts. The programmes start in September 2024 and involve two years of studies at diverse institutions in different countries.
The programmes
International Master of Science in Environmental Technology and Engineering (IMETE); Coastal Hazards, Risks, Climate Change and Adaptation (COASTHazar); Flood Risk Management, and Groundwater and Global Change – Impact and Adaptation (GroundWatCh) are supported by the European Union through its Erasmus Mundus programme. Students typically come to IHE Delft during the second semester (February) and engage in a thesis research project in collaboration with one of the institutions in the fourth and final semester.
IMETE, which targets prospective environmental engineers and scientists, is offered by IHE Delft in cooperation with Ghent University, Belgium, and the University of Chemistry and Technology, Czech Republic.
Students in the COASTHazar programme prepare for professional careers in which they help societies address and adapt to coastal hazards and associated risks. IHE Delft coordinates the programme in cooperation with University of Algarve, Portugal, and Universidad de Cantabria, Spain.
The Flood Risk Management is an integrated, multidisciplinary programme that enables students to develop the skills and knowledge they need to minimize human and socio-economic losses caused by flooding, while also considering the social, economic and ecological benefits of floods. IHE Delft leads the program in collaboration with the Technical University of Dresden in Germany, UPC Barcelona in Spain, and the University of Ljubljana in Slovenia.
The GroundWatCh programme’s curriculum delves into a range of disciplines, including groundwater hydrology, climate sciences and the use of groundwater to address global climate change through adaptation solutions. The programme is offered by IHE Delft, the Technical University of Dresden, Germany and University of Lisbon, Portugal.
Scholarships for European Students
Scholarships are available for students from EU/EEA countries, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Kosovo and Montenegro. The deadline to apply for admission and scholarships is 15 February 2024 (23.59 CET). For more information on how to apply, see the programme websites.
