Funded by the EU, these scholarships allow you to enroll in joint Master's programs offered by a consortium of universities across Europe (and sometimes with partners worldwide). As a scholar, you typically study in 2–3 different European countries as you rotate through the partner universities of your chosen program. Programs span all fields — data science, public health, environmental science, education policy, Euroculture, and more. These scholarships are open to applicants from any country; a large portion is reserved for non-Europeans. If you want a fully funded Master's that gives pan-European exposure, Erasmus Mundus is a top choice.

Prestigious research fellowships (primarily PhD and postdoctoral) under the EU's Horizon Europe program. MSCA Innovative Training Networks (ITN) fund PhD positions in networks of universities across Europe, often with industry exposure. MSCA Individual Fellowships fund postdoctoral researchers. Positions are advertised on the Euraxess portal and pay you as a researcher, meaning you receive a salary rather than a stipend. If you are looking for a PhD in Europe, keep an eye on MSCA-funded PhD vacancies.

Public universities in Norway are tuition-free even for international students at all levels. Norway's 'scholarship' is free education; you'd just need to finance your living.
