About


The continent of Europe has always been one of the world’s centres of learning and technological development. Europe today has over 4000 higher education institutions, from top-level research establishments to small, teaching-focused colleges, with more than 17 million students and 1.5 million academics, including 435,000 researchers.

As well as the high academic standards in Europe, foreign students also gain a rich cultural experience thanks to Europe’s cultural and linguistic diversity, where tiny principalities sit side-by-side with many of the world’s leading economies.

Why Study inEurope ?

Quality• Excellence

Europe has a world-wide reputation as a centre of excellence in learning. Year after year, European universities rank prominently among the top 100 in the world. And only Europe can offer state-of-the-art facilities and cutting-edge research opportunities together with the chance to walk in the footsteps of so many of the world’s most influential thinkers.

• Qualityassured

Europe has developed a scheme of quality assurance in higher education. The European Association for Quality Assurance in Higher Education (ENQA) contributes to the development of quality assurance in higher education across the Bologna signatory countries. (The Bologna process of educational reform aims to create a European Higher Education Area where common principles apply, degrees and academic qualifications are mutually recognised across member countries, and mobility and exchange between institutions is facilitated).

• Valueformoney

Students can benefit from Europe’s high academic standards without breaking the bank. Tuition fees and daily costs are reasonable and relatively low compared to some regions like the US. Overall, the education sector in Europe is very competitive.

• Lastinglegacy

Europe boasts many centuries of academic excellence. Its rich academic heritage is based on many landmarks in human knowledge, and today’s European higher education institutions benefit from this lasting legacy.

Diversity• Choice

There are thousands of higher education institutions in Europe to choose from, offering a great variety of degree programmes. From leading research universities to small, friendly teaching colleges, you’re sure to find what you’re looking for.

• Accessibility

Many European Higher Education institutions now offer a considerable number of graduate and post-graduate programmes in English. There has been a boom in particular in English-taught post-graduate courses on offer throughout Europe over the last decade, even in continental European countries not traditionally associated with English-taught programmes, making Europe more accessible than ever!

• Traditionandinnovation

Immerse yourself in a continent with a wealth of traditions and a history as rich and varied as its many peoples and landscapes. At the same time, Europe is a hotbed of research and innovation, home to first-class resources and technologies, and top scientists working in fields ranging from medicine to space travel, nanotechnology to polar research, and from ICT to nuclear fusion.

• Multicultural

Europe offers a unique cultural experience in a dynamic, multinational and multicultural environment. Besides earning a world-class qualification, you’ll have the chance to learn new languages and intercultural skills that are of great value to future employers and an essential advantage in an ever-changing world.

Opportunity• World-renowned

Studying in Europe gives you a top-quality education which will be respected the world over. Moreover, you can take advantage of the many scholarships that European universities offer.

In terms of academic quality, European Higher Education is second to none. According to the recently released Times Higher Education World University Rankings 2015-2016, Europe has more world-class universities than any other region – with 42 of the top 100, compared to 39 in the US, and 104 universities in the top 200, compared to only 63 in the US. Overall nearly half of the World’s Top 400 universities are in Europe,

he European Union, with its 28 Member States, is the most exciting and rewarding Higher Education destination in the world – offering not only the highest of

academic standards, but also an unrivalled choice of English-taught courses, and access to world-leading research institutions, facilities, and technologies.

TEurope leads the way in Higher Education

a home to the world’s elite universities – although in The University of Oxford (UK), The University of Cambridge (UK), The Karolinska Institute (Sweden), and Ludwig Maximilians Universitat Munchen (LMU) (Germany), Europe has four of the world’s most prestigious institutions.

Europe’s real strength is its strength in depth – with unrivalled expertise across a broad range of subjects and disciplines. European Universities lead the way in Clinical, Preclinical and Health with the lion’s share (44) of the top 100; and in Engineering and Technology, Europe excels with universities from 7 separate EU Member States ranked in the World’s Top 50. It’s a similar story across the disciplines with Europe matching or outperforming its closest regional rivals in Life Sciences, Arts and Humanities, and Social Science.

Meanwhile, Europe’s research and technical facilities were ranked amongst the World’s best by leading academics in the World Reputation Rankings 2016 and the continent is well known for its characteristic strong bond between academia and industry. Overall, Europe has over 4,000 higher education institutions ranging from high level research establishments to teaching focused colleges.

14 15 EHEVF 2016 EHEVF 2016

Each year thousands of Indian students decide to study in Europe, thanks in part to active promotion from the EU Delegation to India via initiatives like the European Higher Education Fair India 2014, EHEVF 2015, and European Higher Education Virtual Fair 2016 India and South Asia (EHEVF 2016). An innovative virtual initiative EHEVF 2016 has at its core a desire to open doors to Indian students interested in tertiary level study in Europe – allowing them to explore some of the myriad educational, scholarship and career opportunities available to them. Indian and South Asian students, researchers, and academics will be able to access exclusive information on participating European Higher Education Institutions (EHEIs) as well as resources on EU Member States education systems via a single platform website www.study-europe.net tailored to their needs. They will also be able to benefit from direct contact with representatives of EHEIs via

Webinars and ‘chat windows’ at the ‘Virtual Higher Education Fair’, which will be held in July and September 2016.

As many Indian students discover, opportunities to study in Europe abound. To begin with, European Higher Education is increasingly accessible for Indian students – and there has been a recent rapid growth in the number of English-taught post-graduate courses available. In practice this means that most Indian students do not have to learn another language to study a post-graduate qualification in Europe.

The UK has the highest number of English-taught academic courses in the EU, with 14,204 Masters Courses and 1,522 PhD’s, although continental Europe is catching up – offering nearly 8,800 English-Taught Programmes right across the disciplines in 2016. The Netherlands and Germany lead the way

with over a thousand programmes each, closely followed by Sweden – although percentage-wise Denmark tops the class with 38% of its bachelor and Masters taught in English.

Conversely, Indian students wishing to learn a European language can do so and many courses in Europe are offered with a language option. In fact, ‘not speaking the language’ is becoming less of a bar to international post-graduate study and is increasingly being seen by Indian students as an opportunity to learn a new coveted skill – a skill which may give them a decisive advantage in finding a top job. As Indian recruiters will be quick to point out, globalisation means polylingualism is now viewed as a major asset by employers, particularly those doing business internationally.

Financially, studying in Europe makes sense too. The costs of living and tuition fees in Europe in particular compare favourably with those in counterpart institutions in the US – and some European countries, such as Norway, Finland and Germany, levy nominal or no tuition fees at all.

Indian students can also benefit from academic scholarships which cover many disciplines, not least under the European Union’s new Erasmus+ Programme, a revamped and expanded version of the Erasmus Mundus Scholarship’s Programme which saw 3,400 Indian students receive scholarships over the last decade. Running from 2014-2020, Erasmus+ has an overall budget of €14.7 billion Euros, whilst the EU has also made available an extra €1.68 billion Euros for third country funding via the EU’s

external action budget.

Similarly, the UK offers many scholarships specifically targeting Indian students, as do several other EU member states and many international scholarships for which Indian students are eligible are offered directly by the European Institutions of Higher Education themselves.

Student mobility in the European Education sector is also a big draw for international students and the EU has helped standardise curriculums and qualifications, and established a user-friendly system of educational ‘credit mobility’. In practice this means that international students are able to study for their degrees not only in different institutions but also in multiple countries within the European Union.

Meanwhile, short stay visa rules have been unified in the Schengen area which is made up of 22 EU member states - though Indian students wishing to study in Europe for an academic year are likely to need a national long stay visa and/or a residence permit. As ever, international students requiring a visa to enter the European Union must obtain their student visa before arrival.

The pursuit of higher education is also, of course, an investment for life. As well as offering a wide variety of accessible world class education, low tuition fees, good scholarships, and top- level research facilities, studying in Europe - with its diverse and intriguing range of regions, cities, and cultures – also provides a rare and wonderful opportunity for both professional and personal development.

Indian students do not need to learn a new European language to study in Europe – the recent boom in English-taught post-graduate programs making European Higher Education even more accessible to internationally mobile. students.

More specifically, today The Netherland’s offers 1,220 Masters in English, compared to 812 Masters in 2011, and only 386 in 2007. Similarly in Germany, the number of English-taught Masters has increased from 88 in 2007, to 632 in 2011, to 805 in 2014 - and to 1113 in 2016.

A similar pattern has emerged right across the European Union Higher Education sector, with a rapid increase in English-taught higher education courses in Spain, France, Italy, Sweden, Belgium, Denmark, and Finland, as well as the Czech Republic, Portugal, and Greece – good news for Indian internationally mobile students interested in studying post-graduate courses in less traditional European higher education destinations.

The statistics will also make interesting reading for Indian students across the disciplines. There is a wide spread in the types of courses taught in English at European Higher Education Institutions (EHEIs), though some courses are more

likely to be taught in English than others.

Business and Economics tops the list in 2016 with at total of 5,449 English-taught Masters courses and 257 PhD’s on offer in EHEIs, followed by Social Sciences (4,894 and 640), Engineering and Technology (3,075 and 431), Humanities (2,853 and 361), Medicine and Health (2,503 and 380), Natural Sciences and Maths (2,328 and 632), Arts, Design and Architecture (2,012 and 164), Environmental Studies and Earth Sciences (1,344 and 156), and Law (1,028, and 72), completes the list (Source: MasterPortal.eu).

Internationally mobile foreign students are also increasingly open to studying European languages through the European Higher Education system – and there are now many courses offered at EHEIs with language options. To support international students, EHEIs also provide access to intensive language courses to help them study in another language.

”

ecent figures show that the UK continues to have the highest number of English-taught academic courses in Europe, with 14,204 Masters Courses and 1,522 PhD’s offered in 2016. However continental Europe is catching up following a rapid increase over the last three years - from around 4,500 English-taught Masters courses in 2011 to 7,000 in 2014, and to 8,795 in 2016, and an additional 1,357 PhD’s.

In fact, ‘not speaking the language’ is becoming less of a bar to international post-graduate study and is increasingly being seen by international students, as an opportunity to learn a new coveted skill – a skill which may give them a decisive advantage in finding a top job.

As any international recruiter will be quick to point out, globalisation and an increasingly interconnected world means polylingualism is now viewed as a major asset by employers, particularly those doing business internationally. The number of Indian-origin global companies is on the rise – HCL Technologies, Suzlon Energy, Infosys, Tata Communications – to name but a few, and research in India is increasingly conducted transnationally meaning that linguistic ability is becoming something of an imperative.

Either way, studying an English-taught post graduate course, studying in English at a EHEI whilst learning a new European language, or even studying in the language of the receiving country, it’s good news for internationally mobile Indian students. There are no longer any linguistic barriers to Indian students studying in Europe – just an abundance of new educational opportunities awaiting discovery.

Student Visas

28 29 EHEVF 2016 EHEVF 2016

In most EU MS you will need to show some or all of the following, in addition to a valid travel document/passport:

• Proof of financial means – documentation to prove how you intend to support your stay

• Documents proving the purpose of the intended stay i.e. a letter of acceptance from the European University, a certificate of enrolment at an educational establishment as well as student cards or certificates of the courses to be attended.

• Travel insurance.

• Students may also need to have several documents certified by their national government authorities and/or translated by authorised translators which would also need to be certified by the EU MS. In some EU MS students must enrol at University through the relevant Embassy/Consulate.

Once all the documents are ready and, if applicable, visa fees are paid, students would usually need to schedule an appointment for a visa interview at the competent Embassy or Consulate of the EU MS. For additional info please refer to the EU immigration portal:

”International students requiring a visa to enter the European Union, including Indian students, must obtain a student visa before arrival in order to pursue their higher educational studies in any EU Member State (hereinafter EU MS).

Six EU MS – Bulgaria, Ireland, Croatia, Cyprus, Romania and UK – are currently not or not yet members of the Schengen area. If they wish to study in any of these countries students should thus apply for a separate visa at the competent Embassy/Consulate of the relevant country.

If students plan a long-stay to any of the 28 EU MS (i.e. more than ninety days) they may need a national long-stay visa and/or a residence permit.

The national long-stay visa is the most common amongst students, as higher education studies are usually longer than 90 days and many students wish to complete a whole academic year, or even more.

When applying for a national long-stay visa the exact type of supporting documents depend on the rules in the destination country. For specific details please refer to the Embassy or Consulate where you will apply.

European Union.


Belgium’s educational institutions, of which some date back to the Middle Ages, are known worldwide for their outstanding academic reputation. They offer the broad range of study subjects from bioengineering to fine arts, from aeronautics to nuclear medicine. There are three types of higher education institutions in Belgium: universities, university colleges and postgraduate training institutions. An ever growing number of institutions of higher learning provide programmes in English. The higher education system in Belgium is part of the so-called European Higher Education Area and comprises three ‘cycles’: the first encompasses Bachelor programmes, the second, Master programmes, and the third, PhDs. A student who has obtained a Bachelor degree can immediately supplement it with a second ‘cycle’ of studies, i.e. a master degree, consisting of at least 60 and in many cases 120 ECTS credits. Master programmes entail interaction between teaching and research and aim to provide students with advanced knowledge and skills in a specific field. The Master programme concludes with a dissertation. An Advanced master degree involves acquiring a specialised professional qualification. Advanced Master programmes are worth at least 60 ECTS credits and are rounded off with a Master’s dissertation, which forms an important part of their assessment. Meanwhile, a Postgraduate programmes aim, within the framework of further vocational training, to broaden and/or consolidate the skills acquired following

a Bachelor or master programme. A certificate is issued after a programme comprising at least 20 ECTS credits. Lastly, a PhD is the highest qualification awarded by universities in Belgium. As well as preparing for their thesis, PhD students take a PhD training programme. Post Graduate tuition fees for non-EU students vary according to the programme but typically this can range between 230,000-600,000 INR per year, with some under 77,000 INR per year. The estimated cost of living (accommodation, etc) is between 60,000 and 80,000 INR per month. Belgium is a popular destination for international students, including a growing number of Indian tertiary level students.

SCHOLARSHIPS

There are several scholarships for international students, including Indian students, from both state educational authorities and private institutions. These include VLIR-UOS Training and Masters Scholarships in Belgium and CUD (University Com- mission for Development) Scholarships in Belgium for Developing Countries. Several regional websites - Study in Flanders, Study in Wallonia, and Study in the German Speaking Community - provide information about courses and funding for study in those specific regions.

The higher education system in Croatia underwent a comprehensive reform within the framework of the Bologna Process and it is now structured according to three cycles (undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate). Moreover higher education studies in Croatia are organised according to the system of transferable credits (ECTS), thus making it easier for international students (from Europe and beyond) to study in Croatia and have their studies recognised in their home countries.

Most Croatian universities are public

institutions. However, private university education has started to develop in Croatia with the establishment of three private universities and numerous colleges of applied sciences.

SCHOLARSHIPS

In order to study at Croatian higher education institutions, international students must have sufficient financial means for the duration of their stay in Croatia – either from personal sources or from national or international scholarships. The majority of Croatian higher education institutions do not currently offer any scholarships or financial aid for international students. However there are a number of scholarships available to international students through bilateral programmes administered by the Croatian Ministry of Science, Education and Sports, through university bilateral agreements, through programmes such as CEEPUS, and Erasmus+ (including Erasmus Mundus), and programmes managed by the Agency for Mobility and EU Programmes (see below). Tuition fees for study programmes in Croatia are determined by each higher education institution and the level depends on the type of study programme and its duration.

The French degrees awarded are based on the European system of Bachelor, Master, and PhD, expressed in credits as defined by the European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). France is one of the forerunners of scientific and technological innovation. It owes this standing to its research capacity and its many achievements in such fields as aerospace, transportation, electronics, telecommunications, chemistry, biotechnology, health and mathematics, successes attested to by the number of French winners of Fields Medals and Nobel Prizes. In terms of costs, tuition fees for higher education vary from institution to institution and between courses. Generally they range from 20,000 INR to 50,000 INR per student per year for a course leading to a national degree.

Lessons are scheduled and students are part of a specific semester class. Students often work in project groups of 3 to 5 people.

As a student at KEA you will not always be told exactly what to do. Teachers provide knowledge, guidance and counselling, but you are expected to take responsibility for your own learning and the common results of your group. All our programmes are oriented towards the business sector and attach an equal amount of weight to theory and practice. Cooperation with enterprises in Denmark and abroad is therefore important to the quality of the programmes offered by KEA. An internship period, which has a minimum duration of 10 weeks, is a mandatory part of all programmes.

The tuition fees vary from programme to programme. Please check the specific programme’s page on our website, www.kea.dk.

University Fernando Pessoa (UFP) is the result of a pioneering higher education project initiated in the 1980’s with the creation of two higher education institutes that provided its structural basis. Today, the University is organized in three faculties (Health Sciences, Human and Social Sciences, Science and Technology), one School of Health Sciences and one autonomous unit (Ponte de Lima College). Being a foundation University, UFP has never been market oriented.

It has managed to develop into a solid private higher education institution with a strong academic focus and a constant concern with quality maintenance and improvement in what concerns a highly qualified teaching staff, physical infrastructures and equipments and its teaching, research and extension project.

The University understands that it has a key role to play in the scientific, cultural, social and economic development of society and aims to continuously strengthen its position as a member of the international community of scholarly institutions.

UFP pledges its commitment to effective, efficient, caring and innovative approaches to teaching, research and community service; client-centred management and administration; and good governance. We see ourselves as an active member of our community and exert influence via service provision and the development of close relationships with major national socio-economic actors, in order to promote mutual advancement.
