The Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency of the European Commission has selected the Erasmus Mundus Masters Program in Public Policy (Mundus MAPP) for a new Erasmus + Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters Degrees grant.

The grant will enable the Consortium to award fully funded Erasmus Mundus scholarships to outstanding EU and non-EU students in three academic cohorts starting from September 2018.

The Mundus MAPP Consortium is comprised of the Central European University in Budapest (Hungary), the Institute of Social Studies of Erasmus University in The Hague (Netherlands), the University of York (UK) and the Institut Barcelona d'Estudis Internacionals (Spain), and the degree is issued jointly by the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, the Universitat de Barcelona and the Universitat Pompeu Fabra.

The selection process was competitive: out of the 116 eligible project applications, 38 have been selected for funding. The Mundus MAPP Consortium has been awarded this type of grant for the third time since its launch in 2007 which shows the relevance, excellence and uniqueness of the program.

The consortium would like to thank former students who also contributed to the success of Mundus MAPP, particularly with their valuable feedback over the years. We look forward to welcoming many more students in the program in the coming years. Our admission process for the 2018 cohort will open in the fall.
