Erasmus Mundus Scholarships in the Masters Program in Materials Science

Erasmus Mundus Scholarships offered in the Masters Program in Materials Science

Application deadline: 26th January 2011
MaMaSELF is a two year European Master program in Materials Science. It stands for the R&D of functional materials, developed in a strong symbiosis between universities, industrial partners and research centres. It offers excellent scientific and industrial carreer opportunities for Master Students in an international environment. It also strongly supports industrial partners to have access to a state of the art characterization of materials at large scale facilities with neutron and synchrotron radiation. The European Master in Materials Science Exploring European Large Scale Facilities (MaMaSELF) is a cooperation of

• University of Rennes 1, FRANCE,
• Technical University of Munich (TUM), GERMANY
• Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich (LMU), GERMANY,
• University of Torino, ITALY.

The Master degree will be delivered by two of the four universities, so the students will receive a double Master degree in Materials Science. Each student will spend one year in a first hosting institution, the first semester of the second Master year at another university. The last semester is dedicated to the Master thesis and can be spent at a university or Large scale Faclities or at a partner institution in Japan, Switzerland or India. Instruction language is English for lectures.
