Erasmus Mundus programme in the European Union

Application for EU students


Who is a European student.

The distinction between 'European Students' and 'Third Country Students' is made in accordance with the criteria of the European Union. Third Country Students are:

    "Nationals coming from all countries other than the 25 EU Member States, the EEA-EFTA states (Island, Liechtenstein and Norway) and the candidate countries for accession to the EU (presently Bulgaria, Romania and Turkey), who are not residents of any of the above countries, and who have not carried out their main activities (studies, work, etc.) for more than a total of 12 months over the last five years in any of the above countries."

The term "third-country" does not have anything to do with the term "third world".

'European Students' are all students who are not Third Country Students.

Selection procedure

The procedures of students’ selection are oriented to quality and fulfilment of ECTS. Because of the Master requires a great effort, the students should be willing to dedicate an important number of hours to different types of tasks (e.g. reading articles, preparing reports, front-teaching). So, the students’ selection involves a rigorous evaluation of knowledge skills and motivational aspects. The process of selection includes the presentation of the CV and an interview with the candidate. During the process the candidate is invited to present documents (e.g., references) which provide further evidence of their preparation and qualification.

So, in every institution the internal coordinator interviews the candidates, and carries out the exam or tests to assess previous knowledge and skills related to the discipline. Afterwards, he/she establishes a ranking considering merits, and formulates a proposal of the candidates who should be accepted in the Master to the Coordinating Committee.

The Coordinating Committee analyses the proposals of the coordinators of every partner institution and decides on the candidates accepted to be enrolled in the Master.
