External Funding 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Secure your ability to apply for external-funding by submitting your materials for early acceptance. With early acceptance to the Media Arts Cultures Excellence Joint Master, incoming students may apply for various funding opportunities.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Below you will find a number of resources available to help prospective students fund their studies. Many of these funding schemes are specific to a country of origin, study area, or other deliniation. The MediaAC consortium advises students requiring external-funds to augment their own funds to research the availabilities. Since there will be funds available to students from your home courty or region, please also search in your primary language. Funding amounts vary greatly. Please review your finances and the scholarship amounts awarded.

Erasmus Taiwan Program
In past years, the Taiwanese Ministry of Education has offered scholarships to Taiwanese students on the EMJMD consortia reserve lists. Although the scholarship amounts are not comparable to the actual Erasmus+ scholarship, (about Euro 12,000) it may significantly help students concerned to start their studies in the programme.
Other information on the Taiwanese Ministry of Education is found here.
