Scholarships
In order to attract excellent international students and to promote their academic performance, Egas Moniz School of Health and Science gives out a scholarship to the best students in a university degree and master’s degree in its Organic Units.
Collaboration Scholarships – which meet the needs of Philosophy and the strategic plan of the School and are a ‘point of honour’ for Social Welfare and Student Support – began as a pilot project between July 2nd and 31st, 2018 in collaboration with the Services of the Egas Moniz Library sponsored by the Management of Egas Moniz entirely funded by the School and their implementation was a success.
Aware that they provide important support to Egas Moniz students while also contributing to the development of extracurricular skills, not only were Library Collaboration Scholarship, a Merchandising Collaboration Scholarship and now a new Gym Support Scholarship was implemented.
Social Welfare Office has always sought to provide opportunities for participation to all students of the different courses, both of the Egas Moniz School of Health and the Egas Moniz University Institute, as well as students from different curricular years. The work of students under a collaboration scholarship scheme will be attributed an hourly rate, to be discounted from the monthly tuition fee, as defined by regulation.
The selection, analysis and validation of applications is done through the Student Support andSocial Welfare Office.
