ISS Scholarship Fund for Excellent Students

The International Institute of Social Studies (ISS) at Erasmus University Rotterdam established this scholarship fund to support excellent students without any other form of scholarship who wish to enroll in the Master of Arts in Development Studies. The scholarship is awarded on a rolling basis and aims to provide financial support to outstanding students who demonstrate strong academic credentials and motivation to study at ISS. Applicants must have either relevant work experience with an upper second or first class degree in social sciences, or be recent graduates with a first class degree in social sciences. The scholarship covers 40% of the tuition fee and decisions on allocation are made on an ongoing basis, with awards distributed as equally as possible among the different majors within the Development Studies program.
