Eiffel Excellence Scholarship 2022 at the University of Orléans

Deadline: November 30, 2021.

The Eiffel scholarship is a programme of scholarships for excellence developed by the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs and managed by Campus France

The Eiffel scholarship programme is a tool developed by the Ministry of Europe and Foreign Affairs to enable French higher education establishments to attract the best foreign students to master's and doctoral degree courses.

It enables the training of future foreign decision-makers, from the private and public sectors, in priority fields of study, and stimulates applications from students from emerging countries aged 25 years or less for the master's level and from emerging and industrialised countries aged 30 years or less for the doctorate level.
