Canada seeks full participation in the EU's Erasmus+ student program

Canada already takes part in Erasmus+, the EU's student scholarship program, and talks are now underway to make it a full participant.

And us?

Canadian students would gain access to grants and scholarships to study in an EU country. The head of the Canadian Bureau for International Studies says it would also strengthen Canada's talent pipeline and research ties with Europe.

Questions remain about how much Canada would pay to take part in the program fully.
