542 Scholarships to Study in Poland

There are numerous scholarships in Poland for native students, their European counterparts and overseas students too. Scholarship opportunities in Poland are usually merit-based, region-based, discipline-based and country-based. Most of the scholarships in Poland are for second-cycle studies (Master’s degree) and include national and international partially-funded and fully-funded awards.

One government-backed scholarship in Poland is the Ignacy Łukasiewicz Scholarship Programme, which is a joint initiative of the Polish National Agency for Academic Exchange and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This annually offered scholarship for Master’s degrees in certain sciences is open to international students from Mexico and certain parts of Asia and Africa. The Stefan Banach Scholarship programme is another state-funded scholarship instituted by the same bodies. Open to citizens of Western Balkan countries, Central Asian and Eastern Partnership to study master’s degrees, it covers tuition fee and monthly stipend. The Civil Society Leadership Awards is another merit-based Master’s degree scholarship available in Poland. This fully-funded scholarship is open to students from selected countries in Africa and Asia.
