French Government Eiffel scholarships

The areas of study concerned by the Eiffel scholarships are:

• Engineering sciences at Master level, sciences in a broader sense for PhD level (engineering Sciences, exact sciences such as mathematics, physics, chemistry and life sciences, nano- and Bio-technology, earth and environmental sciences and information and communication sciences and technology)
• Economics and management
• Law and political sciences
