The University of Camerino (UNICAM) offers international mobility scholarships through UPRAISE: Virtual Worlds Innovation Masters: Shaping Future Digital Skills Europe. Co-funded by the European Union’s Digital Europe Programme, the project strengthens advanced digital skills, particularly in virtual-world technologies, innovation, and entrepreneurship. This cycle supports a two-month study period at UNICAM from January 7, 2027 to March 7, 2027.
Recipients must attend and pass both “Big Data Technologies for Virtual Worlds” and “Complex System Design for Virtual Worlds,” each worth two ECTS credits. The scholarships contribute toward travel, accommodation, and living expenses. Support is provided through Financial Support to Third Parties (FSTP), a cascade-funding mechanism under which the EU-funded project manages the selection and awards and pays the funding itself.
