Designation
Academic Designation: Master of Science (M.Sc.) – Joint / Double Master’s Degree in Advanced Materials Science and Engineering (AMASE)
Awarding Body: Erasmus+ Programme, European Union
Scholarship Description
The Advanced Materials Science and Engineering (AMASE) program is a specialized two-year (120 ECTS) joint master’s initiative designed to prepare graduates for leadership roles in global industrial and academic research. A defining feature of the AMASE program is its dual-campus structure: students study at two distinct European partner universities, completing core courses during the first year and specializing during the second year before writing a thesis. Graduates receive two official master’s degrees—one from each host institution attended—alongside advanced multilingual and intercultural competencies.
Research Area
The AMASE degree curriculum covers cutting-edge fields in materials science and technology, allowing students to specialize in one of five track options:
- Metals and Alloys: Processing, characterization, and structural performance
- Polymers and Composite Materials: Advanced synthesis and functional applications
- Nanomaterials and Biomaterials: Biomedical implants, tissue engineering, and nano-scale devices
- Functional Surfaces and Interfaces: Coatings, thin films, and surface engineering
- Advanced Processing Technologies: Innovative manufacturing methods for modern high-tech industries
Location and Participating Universities
Studies take place across partner universities located in six European countries. Students select two distinct institutions according to their preferred tracks and language proficiencies.
