Master's and PhD Scholarship Opportunities for Eastern Mediterranean University [EMU] Students

Postgraduate Programs Scholarship Opportunities. 
100 % and 50 % scholarship opportunities are offered at Master’s and PhD programs.

Who is Eligible to Apply?
Each academic year, students who have enrolled their respective programs for the first time during the relevant semester may apply for scholarship opportunities.

Students who have registered with special or visiting student status are not eligible to receive this scholarship.

Scholarship Opportunities
In accordance with Article 4(5) of the ‘Research Assistant Appointment and Postgraduate Scholarship Regulations’, students found suitable to receive 100% scholarship are appointed as ‘Category E Research Assistants’. Such students are expected to undertake duties for 5 hours per week at academic units or, if deemed necessary, administrative units.

Students meeting the requirements of this category may be appointed from other suitable categories, if they wish. In this way, the status of a research assistant whose assistantship ends due to various reasons but whose 100% scholarship still continues is automatically shifted to Category E.

The condition for appointment from Category E is not valid for students who have gained the right to receive 50% scholarship. However, in situations where these students have also gained the right to become research assistants, such students are expected to choose either 50% scholarship or research assistantship.

Application and Evaluation
Applications are submitted via the online system during the student’s application to the relevant program.

Shortlisted candidates are expected to register by the end of the working hours until the first registration date. Those who have not registered until this date are considered to have lost their rights. In cases as such, the right to scholarship will be transferred to the first candidate in the substitute list.
Conditions for the Continuation of the Scholarship.

The period of scholarship is Four semesters in master’s programs and Ten semesters in PhD programs during the normal period of the program. A student’s part time or full time status does not affect the period of scholarship. Semesters of extensions and freezing of registration are excluded from the scope of the scholarship. Fees for freezing registration are covered by the student.

Semesters spent in the scientific preparation program and/or English support program are included in the normal period of scholarship, on the condition the maximum period of one year has not been exceeded.

Scholarship of students who have undergone program changes continue, on the condition that they do not have any failed courses including seminar, project, thesis and PhD exam and that their minimum CGPA is 3.00/4.00. Scholarship period is not extended for extra semesters of study emerging due to program changes.

Courses with NI status taken within the normal scholarship period are included in the scope of the scholarship.

A student giving up the scholarship may not return back to the scholarship status unless s/he
re-registers to the university and re-applies for the scholarship.
