More than 300 Brazilian students to Holland

Through the Brazilian programme Science without Borders (SwB) 371 students were granted a scholarship to study in Holland for one year. Nearly half of the students will study at research universities.

Fontys University of Applied Sciences, Eindhoven University of Technology and the University of Groningen receive the largest groups of students. The pre-selected students will mainly study in the fields of engineering and other technology areas. The second-largest group will study in the field of architecture and urbanism.

Science without Borders is a large-scale nationwide scholarship programme primarily funded by the Brazilian federal government. The program aims to enhance international education through the international mobility of graduate students, researchers, post-doctoral encouraging research, innovation and exchange between Brazilian universities and colleges around the world.
