The Master in Membrane Engineering for a Sustainable World offers an advanced education programme related to membrane science and engineering at the interface between material science and chemical engineering and focused on specific applicative fields. It involves 6 HEI of 5 European countries: University of Twente (The Netherlands), Universidade Nova de Lisboa (Portugal), Universidad de Zaragoza (Spain), University of Chemistry and Technology Prague (Czech Republic), University Toulouse III Paul Sabatier (Toulouse, France) and Université de Montpellier (France, coordinating organisation). Associated partners are the Università della Calabria (Italy) and the KU Leuven (Belgium). The master course will have duration of two years: 4 semesters corresponding to 30 ECTS each and given at least in 3 countries.In the first year, theoretical and practical fundaments will be provided: After an integration week, students will enter the master at Université de Montpellier or at Université Toulouse III Paul Sabatier. In each of these universities, there will be common mandatory and optional units, corresponding to teaching and research field of excellence of each partner (material science in Montpellier and physico-chemical processes in Toulouse). This first semester will be adapted to students by taking into account the background and their learning objectives. During the second semester, students will follow mandatory teaching units to acquire knowledge and skills on process modelling and simulation at the University of Chemistry and Technology of Prague.During the second year, students will choose to pursue their training in one of three university in order to acquire specific skills in an application field: Nanosciences and Nanotechnology (Universidad de Zaragoza), Energy and Environment (University of Twente), and Biotechnologies, Food and Health (Universidade Nova de Lisboa). The last semester will be devoted to a 6 month master thesis in a university or an industrial company.The number of enrolled students is expected to be 25. The language of instruction is English. During the study period, the courses and activities country languages and culture are also provided. Students will be awarded with a multiple Master's degrees from the three hosting universities, together with a Joint Diploma Supplement.
