Roma Tre University joined in the a.y. 2025/2026 the IUPALS Project, which provides scholarships for Palestinian students residing in the Palestinian territories, enabling them to benefit from an international education by enrolling in academic programs in Italy.
The project, developed in collaboration with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation, the Ministry of University and Research and the Italian General Consulate in Jerusalem envisages the awarding of approximately 140 scholarships distributed among participating universities.

These scholarships will be awarded in accordance with the procedures defined by CRUI.
