Eiffel Excellence Scholarship 2026 in France for Master’s and PhD Programs in Science, Engineering, Law, Economics, and Management French higher education institutions in France

The Eiffel Excellence Scholarship 2026 is a prestigious, fully funded opportunity for international students to pursue Master’s and PhD programs at top French universities. Funded by the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs and administered through Campus France, this scholarship supports studies in advanced fields such as engineering, science, law, economics, management, technology, biology, mathematics, digital, ecological transition, history, and political science. The program aims to attract outstanding students from around the world, offering a gateway to world-class education and vibrant cultural experiences in France.

Scholarship benefits include full tuition coverage, a monthly stipend (€1,200 for Master’s, €2,100 for PhD), round-trip airfare, living expenses, health insurance, accommodation assistance, and academic support. Recipients also gain access to cultural activities and networking events, enhancing their intercultural understanding and professional growth. The scholarship duration ranges from 12 to 36 months, depending on the degree level.

Eligibility requires applicants to be international students residing outside France for Master’s level, or PhD candidates (with priority given to those outside France). Only candidates enrolled in accredited Master’s, Engineering, or Doctoral programs at French institutions are eligible. Applications must be submitted through French higher education institutions, as direct applications to Campus France are not accepted. Each institution nominates candidates for the scholarship, and non-eligible programs include continuous education, apprenticeship contracts, or professional training.

To apply, students should research French universities offering their desired program, contact the university’s international office to confirm participation in the Eiffel Scholarship, and apply for admission while requesting nomination for the scholarship. The university will then submit the application to Campus France before the official deadline of 8th January 2026.

This scholarship is ideal for students seeking fully funded Master’s or PhD opportunities in France, especially in fields like science, engineering, law, economics, management, and technology.
