Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) has offered scholarships to 126 Pakistani students to study in Europe. The selected students will pursue their studies in 18 leading European countries. Out of the 126 students there are 64 men and 62 women.
With 126 scholarships out of a global total of 2,542, Pakistan now ranks third in world, having moved up one slot from its fourth position in 2019. A major reason is the awareness campaign launched jointly by the HEC and the EU mission in Pakistan. The total number of applications (2,919) from Pakistan is the highest in the world.
The Erasmus Mundus programme aims to promote academic and cultural understanding between the European countries and partner countries. EMJMD programmes encompasses a range of subjects of interest to Pakistan, including the circular economy, microwave electronics and optics, international humanitarian action, vaccinology, children’s literature, media and culture, and groundwater and global change etc.
