Fees & scholarships

The EIT RawMaterials AVSA scholarship is a partial scholarship up to a total of EUR 13,500 for the full 2-year programme. The programme participation cost has to be paid by the student and is not included in the scholarship. European students (EU, European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland) receive a partial waiver for the programme participation cost down to EUR 2,000/year.

The student receives the scholarship in allowances of EUR 1,500/month starting in June of the first year of studies as support for housing, travel and general subsistence.

Each year, more than 500 application files are submitted for the SINReM programme. The admission criteria are clearly listed on this website and no exceptions are made. Every year, only 25-30 scholarships can be awarded so scholarship application are very competitive.

The Student Selection Committee with representatives of all participating universities screens all files and award the scholarships based on objective criteria.

If you would not agree with the outcome of the Student Selection Committee, an appeal can be filed to [email protected].  The decision of the Committe will not be changed unless the applicant can prove that the Committee made an objective mistake during evaluating the candidate.

To award scholarships and academic admission to the SINReM programme, all submitted application files will be reviewed by the SINReM Student Selection Commiteee, with representatives from all partner universities. Admission and scholarships are awarded based on meeting the academic and language requirements, and motivation.

To set up the scholarship ranking, the Student Selection Committee takes into account not only previous achievements, motivation (including entrepreneurial spirit) and references, but also the scientific background of the applicants, as the SINReM programme aims to work on multidisciplinary projects with a diversity of students having different backgrounds.

Applicants who are selected for admission and/or a scholarship, will be notified by e-mail before 1st April 2021.

Selected applicants will receive an Admission Letter by the Registrar of Ghent University, necessary for enrollment to SINReM.
