My Advice
Do not wait for a single application portal, since Erasmus Mundus programs each run their own admissions through the official catalogue. Shortlist two photonics focused consortia this month, check whether your physics or engineering background matches their entry requirements, and apply directly through each program's own university portal well before the October to January window closes.
