Project Summary

The proposal for an International Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's programmeAdvanced Materials for Innovative
Recycling (AMIR-EM) aims at contributing to the higher education of the next generation of chemists, material
scientists and engineerswith special skills in innovation and entrepreneurship and ready to work in the raw
materials sector of the 21stcentury focusing on advanced materials, their sustainability and recycling within a
circular economy. The general objective of the programme is to train excellent students with theoretical and
practical knowledge in Advanced Materials for Innovative Recycling, allowing them to adapt to any kind of job
related to this topic. The Master will be a 120 ECTS study Programme with a length of two academic
yearsleading to double diploma and having the ambition to provide joint degrees. AMIR-EM will be implemented
by a consortium of six universities:-Université de Bordeaux (UBx) –France (Coordinator)-Technische Universität
Darmstadt (TUDa) –Germany-Université de Liège (ULiège) –Belgium-University of Miskolc (UM)
–Hungary-Universidade Nova de Lisboa (UNL) –Portugal-Universidad Politécnica de Madrid (UPM) –SpainThe
four main disciplines targetedare: chemistry, chemical engineering, material science and engineering. AMIR-EM
will enhance their competitiveness by integrating these disciplines with sustainability, recycling and circular
economy considerations. Cross-fertilisation will be assured through the joint aninterdisciplinary approach, through
the invitation of renowned external scholars and through a thorough selection of students.The partner universities
have jointly decided upon the skills, knowledge and competencies which the 84 graduates of the AMIR-EM
Master's programme are expected to possess upon the completion of the Programme. The partner universities
have further agreed on a 6-year programme description for AMIR-EM, outlining common specific objectives,
curriculum and structure for the Programme.
