For the second year, students must move to one at least one of the other partner institutions. In the third semester, students choose a specialisation at that institution. The final semester is dedicated to the master’s thesis which may be done at any of the five partner institutions.
The master’s thesis work can be written at any of the partner universities or associated partners. The list of available thesis topics is agreed upon by the EU4M Local Academic Committee and associated partners, verifying the feasibility and quality of the project topic and methodology. Students are also encouraged to propose their own topics for their master’s thesis. The thesis is an individual in-depth research or expert design project. The thesis counts for 30 ECTS credits and students write and report on the thesis in the 4th semester.
