Dear Colleagues,

Please find attached the newest EuroScholars brochure.

I kindly ask you to share this information with interested and motivated students from your University.

About the EuroScholars Program.

EuroScholars is aiming for excellent undergraduate students from North American institutions to conduct research for 1 or 2 semesters in Europe.

The EuroScholars Consortium, currently consists of 9 universities: Leiden University, Utrecht University, KU Leuven University, University of Heidelberg, LMU, University of Zurich, University of Geneva, University of Helsinki and Karolinska Institutet.

During the period of Spring 2008 up and including Fall 2015, the EuroScholars Consortium hosted all together 135 students in almost all fields of study/research topics. The students come from 71 North American institutions. More information about the EuroScholars Program, can be found on our website: http://euroscholars.eu/

Special note: EuroScholars Award 2016

The EuroScholars Consortium awards up to five 2000 Euro scholarships per semester to deserving applicants.

In order to be considered for an award, students must have their full EuroScholars program application and EuroScholars scholarship application submitted to ISA by the application deadline.

For more information, please check our website: http://euroscholars.eu/students/grants-and-funding-opportunities/

These scholarships are not related to Leiden University only, but for students participating at one of the 9 universities within the EuroScholars Program.

We also published an article “Undergraduate Research in Study Abroad” in the EAIE Handbook Internationalisation of higher education , which is available via the EAIE website:

If you would like to receive a copy of the article, please send me an email.

Please be informed that I will be attending the EAIE conference ( www.eaie.org) next week in Glasgow-UK and will also be presenting a poster about the EuroScholars Program.

Thank you all for your kind cooperation and please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Usha
