Funding from European Universities for Master

[blacklist007]

Hi everyone.

I was wondering if I can contact with professors within EU to ask for funding. I know professors in Canada or US have private funds and are capable of selecting students and funding them. But is this possible in Europe for Master programs? or all the funds are offered y the university only?

private funds are usually used for PhD students, not for master's students in MOST of Europe. They could potentially secure you an RA-ship, but the visa generally limits how much you can work (note: PhDs are usually seen as employees, so they don't have that issue).
