F. Enhance the management, governance and innovation capacities, as well as the internationalisation of HEIs.
What is it?
Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees (EMJMD) are delivered by an international consortium of higher education institutions and, where relevant, other partners with specific expertise and interest in the areas covered by the programme.
3
What is the duration?
An EMJMD is a high-level integrated international study programme of 60, 90 or 120 ECTS credits, i.e. from a minimum of 12 months, to a maximum of 24 months.
4
What is ECTS?
• ECTS is a credit system designed to make it easier for students to move between different countries. Since they are based on the learning achievements and workload of a course, a student can transfer their ECTS credits from one university to another so they are added up to contribute to an individual's degree programme or training;
• ECTS helps to make learning more student-centred. It is a central tool in the Bologna Process, which aims to make national systems more compatible;
• ECTS also helps with the planning, delivery and evaluation of study programmes, and makes them more transparent.
How does it work?
ECTS credits represent the workload and defined learning outcomes ("what the individual knows understands and is able to do") of a given course or programme.
• 60 credits are the equivalent of a full year of study or work. In a standard academic year, 60 credits would be usually broken down into several smaller components.
• A typical "first cycle" (or Bachelor's) Degree, would consist of 180 or 240 credits, whereas a typical
• "second cycle" (or Master's) Degree, would consist of 90 or 120 credits, with at least 60 credits at second cycle level.
• The use of ECTS at the "third cycle" (or Ph.D. level) varies.

Who can apply?
Students at Master's level can apply. Academics may also apply to take part as guest lecturers or academics. Applications are open to individuals from Programme and partner countries

Where do Joint Master Degrees take place?
Study must take place in at least two of the Programme countries represented in the consortium. Part of the studies can also take place in a Partner country if there is a partner-country institution involved.
8
How many participants take part?
Between 13 and 20 student scholarship holders and 4 invited scholars/guest lecturers per intake can, indicatively, take part. In addition to the student scholarship holders, self-funded students can also be enrolled
