Technion undergraduate and master’s students interested in an exchange semester or year at MCI – The Entrepreneurial School, Austria, during 2027/28 may be eligible for the Ernst Mach Grant, funded by the Austrian government.
The grant provides €1,300 per month for one or two semesters, subject to eligibility requirements and a competitive selection process.
Application Process
Students must first apply for the Technion Student Exchange Program for 2027/28 through the regular application process and in accordance with the published procedures and deadlines.
Students selected for exchange at MCI can then proceed with the nomination and grant application process, with guidance from the Student Exchange Unit:
- The Technion nominates selected students to MCI.
- Students complete MCI’s preliminary application and receive an acceptance letter.
- Students submit their grant application, including the MCI acceptance letter, by February 1, 2027.
MCI’s nomination deadline is January 15, 2027. This is a deadline for the Technion to submit nominations; it does not replace the Technion’s exchange application deadline.
Preparing Your Grant Application
Applicants should prepare two recommendation letters and explain how studying at MCI supports their academic goals and future plans.
The grant is competitive: selection for exchange and acceptance to MCI do not guarantee funding. Students will also need to complete MCI’s regular online application when it opens.
