The various ranking exercises conducted by global higher education data providers have been instrumental in establishing benchmarks for academic preference as well as introducing a competitive market into higher education. The effect of the results has been crucial, not only in terms of quality assurance but on the institution’s reputation as a whole.

In view of the positive impact of these ranking exercises on the global reputation and competitiveness of Philippine HEIs, CHED has proactively conducted orientations, masterclasses, and workshop sessions to encourage the Philippine HEIs’ participation in said exercises.

This scholarship programme offers opportunities to the non-EU citizens for bachelors, masters and doctoral degrees in accredited higher education institutions in the country, and offers all fields of study with the exception of medicine, dental medicine and pharmacy.

For the Bachelor and Master levels, only study programs in Romanian language are available; however at PhD level applicants can opt for a program in English or foreign language set by the doctoral school.
