Youth Works Hub lists six engineering master's scholarships for 2027 in Europe, with study in Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Germany and Sweden and one programme held on a rotating basis among partner universities. Five are Erasmus Mundus programmes and one is a former Erasmus Mundus programme, and all six deadlines fall between 7 and 31 January 2027.
The fields are geospatial technologies, electrical power and sustainable transportation, smart energy systems, earthen architecture, Building Information Modelling and composite structures. Each call is open to applicants from 195 countries, and the profiles named include engineers, researchers, architects and programmers. If you are comparing routes, see how scholarships differ from Erasmus+ grants.
