Through our Training Grant, we support the participation of our students in short-term training courses, study, and research programs abroad. Successful applicants have the opportunity to take part in the program of their choice that best fit their areas of interest. The program is open to both MCC students and our alumni members and applications for programs can be submitted up to two times a year.
This program provides funding for MCC students to take part in shorter international study programs including summer universities, fellowships, and research seminars, for a period of 3 to 30 days. Students and MCC Alumni members can apply for the grant two times a year, in spring and autumn, with pre-defined, specific programs. The Grant Program has grown in popularity in recent years and now boasts more than 25 grantees. One of the most popular programs is the Scrutopia Summer School, named after one of the most prominent international thinkers of our time, Sir Roger Scruton. The summer school familiarizes participants with Sir Roger's oeuvre and intellectual heritage through closed seminars on philosophy and history, through various lectures and art programs.
