Each semester scholarships are available to talented, motivated students of the Globalization Program, in order to support them in completing their study period in Venice, or to foster their graduate and professional studies and careers in new and emerging fields.

VIU strives to promote excellence and diversity and to provide a powerful learning experience in which students develop their capacity for critical thinking and creative problem solving: since its foundation in 1995, VIU has increasingly worked to promote the research triangle of stakeholders – industry, academia and government – and collaborations with universities, cultural organizations and companies.

Four calls for applications are published yearly for the Internship and Mobility Program and two calls for the Scholarship Program supporting accommodation fees. Approximately 20 students per semester are selected for the internship program, depending on the amount of funds available for scholarships:

RED (Residency-Excellence-Diversity) Scholarship
To promote excellence, academic and cultural diversity in the Globalization Program, from Spring 2016, scholarships are awarded to talented students to contribute to the cost of living in Venice for a semester. 

 

Scholarships to support Worldwide Mobility
Open to students in any of the member universities in the second year of their Master’s degree (laurea magistrale), who intend pursuing research for their Master’s thesis in themes related to the Globalization Program. Students selected for the research internships and worldwide mobility will be awarded a scholarship which will partially cover travel and living costs.
Call for applications: open until February 21, 2018 for Spring 2018 semester

Scholarships to support Internshipsin Italy
The call is addressed to Bachelor and Master's students from any of the member universities, including exchange students at Ca’ Foscari, Iuav and Padova, who are attending the semester at VIU (at least three courses) and who wish to do an internship in a host organization in Italy following the semester. Students selected for the internship in Italy are awarded a scholarship which will partially cover lodging and living costs.

Scholarship fund
The extended VIU Community is encouraged to contribute to the VIU Scholarship Fund: it is really important that students apply for the program without the concern of the financial burden of sustaining the living costs in their host city.
VIU is a registered non-profit association, and therefore donations to VIU are eligible for tax reductions or deductions in many countries.
