EU urges Pinoys to pursue higher studies

MANILA, Philippines – The European Union (EU) seeks to provide more opportunities for Filipinos who wish to pursue higher studies by holding the annual European Higher Education Fair (EHEF) this November.

This year’s fair, with theme of “Quality. Mobility. Innovation,” will feature more than 20 universities and colleges from Belgium, Denmark, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom offering enrollment opportunities for master's and doctorate programs.

The participating educational institutions at the EHEF are eyeing the inclusion of mobility opportunities across the EU and a better platform for dialogue to further strengthen partnership between the EU and the Philippines.

EHEF Philippines 2015 will also include lectures on the European educational system and way of life to prepare applicants who aspire to enroll in any of the participating educational institutions.

Filipinos can further establish themselves to be among the most qualified individuals in the global arena by pursuing a European-based educational program that offers diversified and high quality programs.

The EU Delegation to the Philippines  states that EU is the leading higher education destination for individuals looking to pursue their master's and doctoral degrees as a means to further improve their career in whatever industry they are involved in.

EHEF Philippines 2015 is being organized by the European Union Delegation to the Philippines, the European Commission, and the EU Member States' Embassies and Cultural Institutes and is supported by the Commission on Higher Education, ANC, Business Mirror and philstar.com.
