The French Ministry of Foreign Affairs launched the Eiffel excellence scholarship programme in January 1999 to support French centres of higher education in their international outreach initiatives, in a context of mounting competition among developed countries, to attract elite overseas students on master’s, engineering and PhD courses.
The Eiffel excellence program offers two components:
- A Master component which helps fund a master level degree course from 12 to 36 months
- A Ph.D. component to fund mobility programs for 10 months under a thesis joint supervision or co-tutorship (preferably for the second doctoral year). If applications are subject to a single call for applications, application forms are specific to each component.
Important dates:
- Online of applications: September 25th, 2013
- Deadline for receipt of applications by Campus France : January 8th, 2014
- Announcement of results: Week of March 17th, 2014
