Overview
The Mathematics Foundation Jacques Hadamard (FMJH) is offering scholarships for a period of one or two year(s) for French and foreign students. The institutions members of the FMJH are supporting the Master «Mathematics and applications». The Sophie Germain Scholarships are intended for students who want to enrol in one of the programs (apart from the track «Formation à l’Enseignement Supérieur en Mathématiques») of this master.
A jury selects the laureates applying the criteria defined by the Scientific Council of the FMJH, the main selection criterion being excellence. Since this program aims to encourage young talents to orientate themselves towards research in mathematics, applicants are asked to give careful attention to the writing of their motivation letter in their file.
Details
Two calls per year
Each academic year, two calls are successively launched for the upcoming year:
- The first call is from September to February and concerns generally overseas students (outside of Europe) for whom it is necessary to engage in applying for visa.
-
The second call is from February to May and concerns more generally EU citizens (Espace Schengen) and the overseas students who already have a residence permit in France valid for the whole academic year.
The results of the various calls will be communicated about one month after application deadlines. Priority is given to candidates for a 2nd year Master program but applications for a first year program or two years are also encouraged.

Cost/funding for participants
The net amount for the scholarship is 10,000 euros for a year. You will also receive a lump sum of up to 2000 Euros, depending on your origin, which is intended to cover one round-trip by plane, visa costs, registration fee at the establishment and a minimal health insurance. French courses, mostly given in French, are also offered to foreign students. You will benefit from the administration for helping with practical issues. Students who wish to benefit from student housing possibilities (studio) should inform the administration. The housing cost will then be deduced directly from the scholarship.
Un-save Opportunity
Internships, scholarships, student conferences and competitions.
