About Program
EuroScholars is a prestigious semester-long study abroad program designed for talented and highly-motivated undergraduate students looking to participate in international research. ISA and EuroScholars have partnered together to offer this unique program to undergraduates studying in the US or Canada. While the EuroScholars consortium administers the program, ISA manages the recruitment and admissions process for all participants. As a EuroScholars participant, you will join a research team at one of the renowned research universities which make up the EuroScholars consortium.
Once you've been accepted into a research project, you will begin working closely with your EuroScholars host university regarding pre-departure preparations. Your host university contacts (Host Institution Coordinator and Research Project Supervisor) will also be your main/first point of contact regarding your research project and any aspects of your experience abroad!
