About this opportunity
The Romanian Government Scholarship, run by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with the Ministry of Education, supports citizens of non-EU countries to study for a Bachelor's, Master's or PhD at Romanian public universities. It covers full tuition, dormitory accommodation where available, and a monthly stipend (65 euros for Bachelor's and the preparatory year, 75 euros for Master's, 85 euros for PhD, paid in Romanian lei). A free one-year Romanian language preparatory course is included. Bachelor's and Master's programmes are taught in Romanian only; PhD students may study in Romanian or in a foreign language set by the doctoral school. It is not available for Medicine, Dental Medicine or Pharmacy.
Please note: the stipend is modest and does not cover flights, health insurance or personal expenses.
