Funding under Erasmus Mundus II
In April 2009, 36 Master’s courses of the first Erasmus Mundus  
generation applied for further funding under the Erasmus Mundus II  
Programme. The European Commission selected out of these applications  
19 programmes one of it was the Master’s course “Global Studies – A  
European Perspective”. Starting with next year there will be  
introduced some changes in the Erasmus Mundus scholarship scheme. A  
major one is the offer of full-time grants for European students  
(category B scholarships). For the 2010-2012 generation 6 category B  
grants will be provided for students of the Global Studies programme  
as well as 8 scholarships for non-EU students and 2 grants dedicated  
for nationals from the Western Balkans and Turkey.

Also the composition of the EMGS consortium will change. Starting with  
2010 Roskilde University (Denmark), Fudan University (China) and  
Jawaharlal Nehru University (India) will be part of the consortium.

School of Economics, the University of Vienna and the University of

During introductory days the co-ordinators offered administrative

new environment. The support was very much appreciated by the  
newcomers. An excursion to Altenburg as well as other social events  
that have been organised for those students that do study in the  
winter term at the University of Leipzig allowed to get to know the  
classmates before the start of the courses. Altogether 128 students

Polish mountains that brought together all first year students in a  
beautiful winter scenery and enabled all EMGS students to get to know  
also their colleagues from the other study places and at the same time  
to created a common EMGS spirit, the EMGS consortium decided to  
organise the winter school also in 2009. It will be held from December  
10th to 13th in the Polish mountains. Besides academic workshops and  
presentations also evaluation meetings as well as an excursion are  
organised. The participation is obligatory for all first year students
