Korea Taught Masters Scholarships For Europe-Korea Foundation Students

The EKF Scholarship Programme for South Korean students – awarded for the first time in 2003 to 11 students – was established to promote Europe as an academic centre. With the Scholarship Programme EKF wants to support South Korean students with excellent academic records who wish to study in Europe. In 2004 EKF also established a Scholarship Programme for North Korean students through which North Korean students and experts will be sent to Europe to study various fields such as economics, business, international law, etc., from an international perspective. 5 x 20% Tuition Fee Scholarships are available for Europe-Korea Foundation sponsored students registering on Taught Masters programmes at The University of Nottingham in September 2008 – any subject area (excluding MBA).
