GLOCAL Erasmus Mundus Scholarship 2025
The GLOCAL programme is co-funded by the European Union through the Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters (EMJM) programme. Prestigious Erasmus Mundus scholarships are available for well qualified applicants to the Erasmus Mundus International Master in Global Markets, Local Creativities.
Details
Erasmus Mundus scholarships can be offered to students from any region of the world; however, in order to ensure geographical balance, no more than 6 scholarships per nationality will be awarded over the four editions, which is 10% of the total number (60) of regular scholarships available during the project implementation (4 editions).
In addition to the 60 ‘regular’ scholarships, we also have funding to award up to 30 additional scholarships over the four editions, which are targeted at certain regions. Note: the geographical rule of 10% stated above is not applicable to the additional, targeted scholarships.
The targeted regions for the 30 additional scholarships, as specified by the European Commission, are: Regions 1, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11. These scholarships are financed by the EU’s external action instruments. For a full list of countries in each region, see the Erasmus+ Programme Guide (pages 34-35).

Scholarship Payment
Successful applicants can choose to receive their scholarship payments in one of two ways. Students can choose which option to follow, and will be able to indicate this in pre-arrival Welcome Packs once the scholarship has been accepted.
Option One

- €1000 paid in May 2026 (end of Year 1)
- €1000 paid in September 2026 (start of Year 2)
These payments will be deducted from the student’s overall scholarship award and will result in a monthly subsistence payment of €1275 every month over the 2 years.
Option Two

Eligibility and How to Apply
To be eligible for a scholarship, you must first have a conditional or unconditional offer from the University of Glasgow. The deadline for application for the Erasmus Mundus Scholarship is 12 January 2025. Applicants must submit all required documents, as outlined in the application form, by the application deadline. If your offer status is ‘holding for documents’ at the scholarship application deadline, then you will not be considered for a scholarship. In addition, applicants must not have previously received an EMJM scholarship.
After this deadline, the GLOCAL consortium will review and rank all scholarship applications, with scholarships being offered to top-ranking applicants. A reserve list will be kept, based on ranking, and the first eligible reserve candidate will be contacted should an original scholarship awardee withdraw.
Results will be announced on 7 April 2025. Please see our How to Apply page for the Scholarship application form and for the link to the University of Glasgow application portal.
