France needs to have successful foreign scholar programmes for cultural, academic, economic and political reasons.
- Cultural, since France has a long tradition of cultural diversity that is important to uphold,
- Academic, since having foreign scholar programmes is a way for French higher education and research
- institutions to acquire the international reputation they need for their development,
- Economic, in that our country’s future growth in international trade depends partly on good quality
- foreign scholar programmes today,
- Political, since foreign scholars are an important vehicle for our influence worldwide.
The French Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs launched the Eiffel excellence scholarship programme in January 1999 to support French centres of higher education in their international outreach initiatives, in a context of mounting competition among developed countries, to attract elite overseas students on Master’s, Engineering and PhD courses.
