New : Results of 2012 selections !

Once more, the University of Liege is involved in several new Erasmus mundus programmes.

After a tough competition, where only 15% of the applying consortia are selected, it results that the ULg is involved in 4 of them :

• Two partnerships :  ACP (lot Africa, Caribbean and Pacific) and EPIC (lot Lebanon, Syria, Jordania, Palestine)
• Two Master programmes, one in the field of sciences (Mer), the other in engineering (EMERALD), for which the ULg is coordinator
  

These Erasmus Mundus programmes funded by the European Commission, contribute to the international reputation of the ULg, give the opportunity to recruit the best student all over the world and consolidates the quality of its international programmes.

NB: Considering the lauch of the next programme "Erasmus for All", there will be no call for new Erasmus Mundus Masters and Doctorates in 2013.
