The European Union (EU) encourages Filipino students who want to pursue higher education abroad to turn to Europe and avail of scholarships offered under the Erasmus+ program.
The Erasmus+ program will give Filipinos a chance to combine studying abroad with a traineeship. This opportunity will allow Filipinos to pursue their bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral degrees.
The Erasmus+ program also promotes the EU as a center of excellence in learning and makes student mobility a reality for EU and non-EU citizens.
At the opening of the two-day hybrid European Higher Education Fair (EHEF) 2022 at Shangri-La Plaza Manila last Friday, November 18, 2022, EU Ambassador to the Philippines Luc Véron said that studying in Europe would provide Filipino students with a different perspective useful for both personal and professional development.
This scholarship program is structured to allow students to pursue their graduate studies in more than one country, giving them the opportunity to benefit from the academic expertise and culture of more than one university.
The program also gives life-changing opportunities for Filipino students. They will experience European culture, learn European languages, and be integrated into European society.
EHEF is a venue for interested Filipino youth to interact with representatives from over 90 top universities and European educational institutions.
“As the European Union celebrates the 2022 International Year of the Youth, we are focused on enabling the youth to be ready for innovation and to help build a better future—one that is greener, more inclusive, and digital,” Véron said in his speech.
Participating EU member-states are Belgium, Czechia, Germany, Ireland, Denmark, Spain, France, Italy, Hungary, the Netherlands, Poland, Finland, Austria, and Sweden.
