Study in Europe - EMM-Nano Erasmus Mundus Master of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

Home >> Eramus Mundus >> Engineering and Technology


Title of Master Course
Erasmus Mundus Master Nanoscience and Nanotechnology

Duration 2 years

Partner universities (Consortia)
Catholic University of Leuven, Belgium (Co-ordinating Institution)
Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden
Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands
Leiden University, the Netherlands
Dresden University of Technology, Germany

Course Description

This two year Master’s Course, organised by the Catholic University of Leuven (Belgium),Chalmers University of Technology (Sweden), Delft University of Technology (the Netherlands),Leiden University (the Netherlands), and Dresden University of Technology (Germany), offers high level specialised training in the field of nanoscale research. The programme is organised around four major themes: nanotechnology, nanoscience, biophysics, and nanobiotechnology. The Course aims to instil in its students the power to communicate and think across the boundaries of traditional scientific disciplines. Students receive a basic training in a range of disciplines, and choose to specialise within one of these disciplines, conducting international research in a prestegious research and development environment.

The language of instruction is English. The student population is around fifty students. Since the Master’s course has a strong link with many research groups, the professor/student ratio is very high (more than one professor to every five students).

The Course leads to a double degree from the two universities at which the student has studied. With this degree, students will be prepared for high-level science and engineering positions within the booming economy of nanosciences. Applications requirements include the completion of a Bachelor’s degree in Physics, Chemistry, Biochemistry, Electrical Engineering, or Materials Science with a demonstrated knowledge of Physics. English language proficiency is also a requirement.

TUITION FEES
The tuition fees for 2005-2006 are as follows:
  • EU/EFTA nationals younger than 30 years€ 1,476 per year
  • EU/EFTA nationals older than 30 years€ 2,007 per year
  • Non-EU/EFTA nationals€ 11,500 per year*

* NOTE! The fees are subject to change.

EU countries: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, The Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta,The Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the United Kingdom.

EFTA countries: Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland.

Service included for non-EU/EFTA students
For students from outside the European Union (non-EU/EFTA) the fee covers costs incurrent in via applications, introductory Summer School programme fees and mediation in the provision of furnished student accomodation on arrival. The cost of travel between the universities is not included in the fees and is therefore at students'own expanse. Please note that there is no application fee.

Scholarships for non-EU/EFTA students
Partial scholarships (tuition-fee waivers) are available on a merit and demonstrated financial need basis. Other organizations, such as Nuffic also offer scholarships to students accepted for the MSc NanoScience programme.

Study in Europe- EU4M Erasmus Mundus Master's Course in Mechatronic and Micro-mechatronic Systems

Home >> Eramus Mundus >> Engineering and Technology


Title of Master Course
Erasmus Mundus Mechatronic and Micro-Mechatronic Systems (EU4M)

Duration 2 years

Partner universities (Consortia)





Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences, Germany (Co-ordinating Institution)
University of Oviedo, Spain

Course Description

Mechatronic and also Micro-Mechatronic Systems cover the development and also the maintenance of systems which consist of a very high level of complexity (cars, airplanes, space laboratories, micro-laboratories, mobile communication systems, self adaptive systems and robotics).

During the program, you will work one year on universities in two different countries: Karlsruhe (Germany), Besançon (France) and Gijón (Spain). Lectures are given in the local languages French, German and/or Spanish. Language learning and integration into the society is supported by our successful TandemPlusSystem, where each third country student will work together with one local/european student and his mentor, a local professor. During the First Year at each institution identical lessons are given to bring the students up to the same level of knowledge. The Second Year has to be studied at one of the two other institutions. The theoretical lessons are given in combination with practical trainees in co-operation with industry and research centers. There will be an approximate supervision ratio of students by professors of 1.
During your thesis work you will meet and work with professionals from various backgrounds and gather knowledge on a wide range of issues involved, you will also get a comprehensive EU perspective on mechatronic related technologies. This will help you develop a coherent and integrated approach that is applicable to a more global perspective as well.


Scholarship
EU scholarships for selected "third-country" graduate students will be available. Third country graduate students are nationals from a third country other than those from EU Member States, EEA-EFTA States and candidate countries for accession to the European Union.

Admission
-Deadline for the academic year 2008/2009:
-Students and scholars both from European and non-European countries are welcome to apply for the Master program.
-Third-country students and scholars running for Erasmus Mundus grant: 31/01/2008
-EU students and third-country not applying for Erasmus Mundus scholarship: from 10/05/2008 to 30/06/2008
