There are three types of funding:

  • Scholarships that give you a monthly allowance
  • Educational events that get reimbursed by Fusenet
  • Additional housing or thesis support

Make sure to check out the official website of the Fusion-EP Master for more funding possibilities.

FuseNet

The FuseNet Association supports mobility for Summer and Winter Events, and Joint courses. In order to get back the expenses of the transportation, food and accommodation, which are payed for by the students, you can apply to Fusenet for a reimbursement. This application can only be filed once per 11 months so from the 5 educational events:

  • Three-day winter event in Cadarache (February, year 1)
  • Three-day summer event / graduation in one of the host universities (July, year 1)
  • Two-week joint-experimentation in Prague (December, year 2)
  • Two-week joint-practicum in Cadarache (February, year 2)
  • Three-day summer event / graduation in one of the host universities (July, year 2)

Only two can be reimbursed by Fusenet if they are 11 months apart. The reimbursement is proportional to the duration and the distance. In almost all cases it is recommended to apply for the two Cadarache events. The application has to be submitted at least 2 weeks before the actual start of the educational event. The educational event has to start no later than 6 months after application. After the event, proof of attendance, transportation and accommodation need to be uploaded to Fusenet. Also keep in mind that the distance between the university where the student is subscribed (i.e. the home university) and the event should be at least 100 kilometers.
