Arqus Talent Scholarship Fund – First call 2023 (doctoral students only), deadline 31 May 2023

The Arqus European University Alliance, of which the University of Padua is part of, is pleased to announce the first call for applications 2023 of its Arqus Talent Scholarship Fund.

The Arqus Talent Scholarship Fund is designed to attract and retain talent at postgraduate level from around the world. In our first call for applications, we are looking for talented graduates and students who want to pursue a Doctoral Degree at one of the Arqus partner universities (Granada, Graz, Leipzig, Lyon 1, Maynooth, Minho, Padua, Vilnius and Wroclaw) including a compulsory mobility at a second Arqus partner university.

The scholarship is composed of a subsistence allowance of 1,400€/month to cover the student’s living costs, medical insurance and a materials allowance. In addition, the Arqus Talent Scholarship Fund will cover the tuition fee at the student’s entrance university.
The Arqus European University Alliance would also like to support students with fewer opportunities under this scholarship scheme by providing a special needs fund of 250€/month.

Priority will be given to students with fewer opportunities, refugees/asylum seekers and applicants with a Master’s degree not obtained at the Arqus university where they will undertake the doctoral studies or where they are currently enrolled.

For more information, please visit our website. If you have any further questions, please send an email to talent-scholarship@arqus-alliance.eu

We welcome applications until May 31, 2023 (23:59 CET). Link to the online application platform
A second call aimed at Master’s students will open in early May 2023.
