HSP Huygens Programme for Master's Degree 2010 - NETHERLANDS

The prestigious HSP Huygens Programme is open to excellent students from all countries of the world. It is aimed at talented students who want to come to the Netherlands in the final phase of their bachelor’s studies or during their master’s studies.

PhD applications can only be accepted from excellent students with the Croatian or Turkish nationality. Furthermore the minister has reserved part of the total budget for excellent students following programmes in Dutch language and literature, or Neerlandistiek.


Excellence
The Dutch Minister for Education, Culture and Science has made seven million euros available for excellent students coming to the Netherlands under the HSP Huygens Programme. There is no fixed number of available scholarships. The actual number is determined by the total cost of the variable components of the scholarships.


New application round

The HSP Huygens application round for the 2010-2011 academic year will start on 1 November 2009.

Important: the complete application, both digital and paper dossier, must be received by Nuffic no later than 31 January 2010. Applications that have not been submitted digitally and on paper or applications that are incomplete will not be accepted.
