One of the Erasmus Mundus programmes objectives is to encourage and enable highly qualified graduates and scholars from all over the world to obtain qualifications and/or experience in the European Union.
Therefore scholarships are granted to highly qualified third-country scholars (definition see below) to carry out teaching and research assignments and scholarly work in the institutions organising the Agris Mundus Masters course.
There are 3-5 places for third-country scholars (depending the duration chosen for the stay in EU) who will be granted a scholarship within the framework of the Agris Mundus.
The scholar will be integrated in the department organising the Agris Mundus at the hosting university.
It will be asked to him/her:
- to lecture students on a topic for a time slot to be agreed upon corresponding to the scholars field of expertise and availability,
- to assist in the preparation, development and/or implementation of a practical seminar or case study organised for the Agris Mundus students and other students in rural development
- to explore potential collaboration between the Agris Mundus consortium and the home institution of the scholar.
