GLOBED is designed to offer a scientific and theory-oriented study program on a high academic level with a strong emphasis on project work intended for highly motivated graduates who have already successfully completed a first-cycle degree.
The program has been selected for another round of funding under the Erasmus+ framework for the 2023-2029 period, which means that students who apply along the next four intakes will have the possibility to opt for the Erasmus Mundus scholarship as well.
GLOBED will grant Erasmus Mundus scholarships for the next four editions. However, the Consortium highly encourages students interested in joining the program to check all the potential scholarships available in their origin countries and elsewhere.
ELIGIBILITY:
A bachelor’s degree title in educational sciences or in any other relevant field (preferably in sociology, social/cultural anthropology, political sciences, human geography, or international relations).
The degree program should last a minimum of three years and correspond to 180 ECTS.
Examples of Fields Eligible for Admission to Our Program:
Educational Sciences: This field of study focuses on education as an academic discipline, encompassing its theories, practices, policies, and research. Degrees in Educational Sciences are characterized by their interdisciplinary nature, drawing on insights from psychology, sociology, philosophy, and history to analyze and enhance educational systems and learning processes. Graduates with this background bring a comprehensive understanding of how education impacts individuals and society, making them ideal candidates for our program. Example.
Socioloy: Applicants holding a degree in Sociology are encouraged to apply. Sociology is a discipline that examines the structure, development, and dynamics of societies, focusing on how social institutions, relationships, and cultural norms influence human behavior and interactions. This field equips graduates with advanced analytical skills and a comprehensive understanding of social systems, inequalities, and the broader societal factors that impact education and learning. The interdisciplinary foundation of sociology aligns seamlessly with the objectives of our master’s program, preparing graduates to engage critically with complex educational challenges and contribute meaningfully to the field.
