The Intensive Programme ESM should be a short programme of study which brings together students and staff from universities off different participating countries in order to:

Encourage efficient and multinational teaching of specialist topics in the field of telecommunications and applied computer science which might otherwise not be taught at all, or only in a very restricted number of universities;

Enable students and teachers to work together in multinational groups and so benefit from special learning and teaching conditions not available in a single institution, and to gain new perspectives on the topic being studied;

Allow members of the teaching staff to exchange views on teaching content and new curricula approaches and to test teaching methods (including e-learning) in an international classroom environment.
