Erasmus Mundus is an initiative of the European Commission to offer highly world class masters programs to students of the 3rd world. All in All its a 230 million euro master plan.
See http://europa.eu.int/comm/education/programmes/mundus/index_en.html In concrete terms, Erasmus Mundus will support about 100 Erasmus Mundus Masters Courses of outstanding academic quality. It will provide grants for some 5,000 graduate students from third countries to follow these Masters Courses, and for more than 4,000 EU graduate students involved in these courses to study in third countries. The programme will also offer teaching or research scholarships in Europe for over 1,000 incoming third-country academics and for a similar number of outgoing EU scholars. Last but not least, Erasmus Mundus will support about 100 partnerships between Erasmus Mundus Masters Courses and higher education institutions in third countries. Higher education institutions coming from the 25 European Union Member States and the EEA/EFTA countries (European Economic Area / European Free Trade Association) are eligible for offering Erasmus Mundus Masters Courses jointly, under Action 1. Action 1 is also open to current European Union candidate countries, but official participation of these countries in the programme has not yet been formalised. The duration of the programme is five years (2004-2008) with a planned financial envelope of 230 million Euro for the whole period.
