Yuste Foundation Offers 200 Grants for the Online Campus Yuste Courses
The European and Ibero-American Academy of Yuste Foundationoffers 200 grants to finance the university tuition fee in four courses within the Campus Yuste online programme, which will be held during September and October and are included in the XXI edition of the international summer-autumn courses of the University of Extremadura.
As a result of the situation caused by COVID-19, which imposes restrictions on the movement of persons, preventive measures and recommendations for social distancing, the courses programmed for the 2020 Campus Yuste programme have gone from being face-to-face courses to online courses, so the attendance and participation of the beneficiaries of the grants will be telematic.
The courses offered with 50 grants each, are the following:
