The International Cooperation Group of Brazilian Universities (GCUB) has opened applications for its 2026 International Mobility Program — a global scholarship initiative designed for students ready to pursue Master’s and Doctorate degrees in Brazil. This is not just a scholarship. It is access. To research. To networks. To international academic collaboration. Selected candidates will study in top Brazilian Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), with full academic fee waivers and monthly stipends throughout the duration of their programme. Master’s degrees run up to 24 months. Doctorates can extend up to 48 months. The goal is clear. Build globally competitive talent. Strengthen research. Expand opportunity. The programme also aligns with key global priorities — promoting quality education, reducing inequality, and strengthening international partnerships through knowledge exchange. Educational Resources   What selected candidates receive:Full tuition coverage.Monthly stipends for the duration of study.Access to university facilities — libraries, labs, study spaces.Integration into global research and academic networks. But there’s a catch. Preparation matters. Applicants must be non-Brazilian citizens from countries with diplomatic ties to Brazil. A completed undergraduate degree is required for all applicants, while Doctorate candidates may need a Master’s degree depending on the chosen programme. Language flexibility exists at the application stage — submissions can be made in English, Portuguese, Spanish, or French. However, successful candidates must demonstrate at least an intermediate level of Portuguese before completing their programme. Simple truth. You will need to adapt. Candidates can apply to up to four programmes across different universities and regions in Brazil. Each application requires more than just documents — it demands thought. A clear academic statement. A structured research proposal. Strong alignment with chosen programmes. Selection is competitive and unfolds in three stages: document screening, academic evaluation by universities, and final classification by an international committee. Only the strongest profiles move forward. It is important to note that while tuition and stipends are covered, candidates are responsible for initial expenses — including travel, visa processing, and health insurance — before receiving their first stipend. Deadline discipline is critical. Incomplete or duplicate applications will be disqualified. This is an opportunity for serious candidates. Those ready for academic depth. Global exposure. Long-term impact. Apply here:https://www.gcub.org.br/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/EN-Call-for-Applications-GCUB-Mob-N.-001_2026-.pdf
