Bioethics Jobs/ Scholarships
The Erasmus Mundus Master of Bioethics programme originated in 2000 and is jointly organized by the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Belgium), Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen (The Netherlands) and the Università degli Studi di Padova (Italy). The main objective of this programme is to train highly qualified students for research work or professional activities in the interdisciplinary field of bioethics, a field that is increasingly confronted with different moral questions and dilemmas. It approaches bioethics from an international perspective, with special attention to European philosophical traditions in this area.
We are pleased to inform you that, due to the grant of the Erasmus Mundus label, we are able to offer scholarships for EU nationals (Category B scholarships) for the academic year 2012-2013.
The online application procedure is available on our website under the submenu ‘Application’. The deadline for application is extended till February 15th, 2012.
