🎓 Erasmus Mundus Scholarships
For the 2026–2028 programme, we expect to offer 10–15 Erasmus Mundus Scholarships, open to applicants of all nationalities.
An Erasmus Mundus scholarship covers both your tuition and your living costs for the full Mundus Journalism programme.
Scholarship holders receive:
A complete waiver of all tuition fees for both years of the programme
€1,400 per month for up to 24 months, which you can use for housing, food, travel, visas, and any other costs related to studying and living in Europe
Free health and liability insurance
💶 Erasmus+ Stipends
Applicants who are not awarded an Erasmus Mundus Scholarship are expected to qualify for an Erasmus+ stipend of up to €6000, providing financial support for the second year of study.
✨ Career-ready skills
Each university in the Mundus Journalism Consortium offers career guidance resources, including one-on-one counselling, workshops, and networking events. These services help you build employability skills and prepare for the transition from student life to a professional career.
Graduating students also receive insights and advice from the Advisory Board, and new initiatives connect students and alumni across regions and career paths — strengthening our supportive global community.
🩺 Health and civil liability coverage
All students enjoy free health and civil liability insurance throughout the entire two-year programme.
🌍 Post-graduation opportunities
Graduates are eligible for a work visa in both Denmark and their second-year host country, offering flexibility to gain professional experience in Europe after graduation.
Each year, the Mundus Journalism Consortium receives between 400 and 500 applications and admits up to 80–90 students. Our students come from across the world, representing diverse academic and cultural backgrounds.
