COP15 Climate Scholarship

Climate change is one of the major challenges that our world faces today. In December 2009, Denmark hosted  the United Nations Climate Change Summit. To emphasise the importance of sustainable climate solutions, the Danish government is launched the 'COP15 Climate Scholarship' for highly qualified students. The scholarships, covered both tuition fees and living expenses, was made available for a range of excellent two-years Master's programmes, including MSc programmes in wind energy, environmental engineering or sustainable energy planning.

In line with the overall aim of securing a climate friendly Climate Conference, the Danish Government decided not to give any gifts or conference-kits for COP15 participants. The resources saved was instead used to create the ‘COP15 Climate Scholarship', which has given a number of international students the opportunity to pursue a masters degree within climate change studies at a university in Denmark.

The scholarship is no longer available

 

Some students was selected by their university to undertake field work in Greenland.
