The scholarship covers 8 months of tuition fees, accommodation in the university dorms and monthly stipend – the equivalent in lei of 75 euro for master’s studies and 85 euro for PhD, research and professional studies.
Due to the fact that the renewal of the bilateral cooperation agreement that sets the procedures for this scholarship has just recently been signed by the Ministry of National Education of Romania and the Ministry of Education of Israel, the deadline for sending the application to the Embassy is short: 18 August 2014! We are very sorry for the late notice, unfortunately there were circumstances out the embassy’s control.
