Europubhealth+ Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Scholarship (EHESP, Rennes) and Fee Waiver

EHESP, France

Scholarship overview

Europubhealth+ is a two-year, full-time European Master in Public Health delivered by eight partner universities: EHESP (Rennes, France), University of Sheffield, University of Granada, University College Dublin, University of Liège, Jagiellonian University in Kraków, Maastricht University and ISPED Bordeaux. EHESP coordinates the programme, which has run since 2006 and was selected again as an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree in 2024.

Erasmus+ funding renewed in 2024 allows the consortium to award 60 full scholarships to high-level students worldwide across the intakes from 2025 to 2028. The number of scholarships per cohort is limited and awards go to the top-ranked applicants.

Applicants who do not win a scholarship can still enrol as self-funded students and request a tuition fee waiver of up to 30%. EHESP itself runs no separate scholarship scheme for its other master's programmes.
