About this opportunity
The Erasmus Mundus AMASE Scholarship 2027 funds a two year joint master in Advanced Materials Science and Engineering, studied at two partner universities in Europe and leading to a double Master of Science degree. The consortium brings together Saarland University in Germany, Lulea University of Technology in Sweden, Universite de Lorraine in France, Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya in Spain, Montanuniversitat Leoben in Austria and the University of Padua in Italy. A full Erasmus Mundus scholarship covers participation costs in full for four semesters, pays EUR 1,400 per month for 24 months, and includes basic health insurance cover in the EU. A partial Erasmus Mundus scholarship covers the participation costs in full for four semesters but pays no monthly allowance. The monthly allowance is meant to cover visa, accommodation and travel costs as well, with no additional funding for those items. Students who have previously obtained an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master scholarship are not eligible for another one.

Deadline notes
The scholarship deadline depends on your entrance university. Apply by 15 January 2027 if Lulea University of Technology is your entrance university. Apply by 15 February 2027 if your entrance university is UPC, Saarland University, Universite de Lorraine, Montanuniversitat Leoben or the University of Padua. A complete application received before the relevant deadline is automatically considered for an Erasmus Mundus scholarship. After that deadline an application cannot be considered for the scholarship, although self-financing admission may still be possible. Check the official application page for the current portal status before submitting, because a third-party check on 22 October 2026 reported the EUSMAT submission system temporarily disabled.
