Erasmus Mundus Master in Membrane Enginering (EM3E)

Education objectives

The European Network of Excellence NanoMemPro (acronym for “Expanding membrane macro scale applications by exploring nanoscale material properties”), was funded in the scope of the FP6
http://www.nanomempro.euromemhouse.com/) and has created a legal entity, the European Membrane House (http://www.euromemhouse.com) which now host all activities.
One of the main objectives of NanoMemPro was the establishment of long-term synergies in Europe.
The creation of education programmes in Membrane Engineering was strongly supported by the
Club of Interest of NanoMemPro gathering a significant number of small and medium-sized enterprises and large industrial companies.
The AM3E project is believed to answer the industrial and academic needs in terms of background and advanced knowledge in Membrane Science, by bringing together the expertise of the best
European Universities working in the field.

Evaluation rules

The following modes of evaluation are used with regard to academic qualifications:

  1. Evaluation based solely on an examination or completion of a final project.
  2. Evaluation based on work done throughout the semester excluding examination or final project. In these courses students can expect to carry out, for example, laboratory activities, mini-tests, tests, individual or group projects, seminar-related activities, any combination of which will be used to determine the final grade.
  3. Evaluation based obligatorily on an examination or a final project. In these courses there extists a form of evaluation similar to one of the aformentioned activities in paragraph 2 as well as a form of evaluation based on a final exam.
  4. Evaluation based on work done throughout the semester with the possibility of foregoing an examination or a final project.

The Dissertation seminar includes a public presentation, before a Jury, in accordance with legal statutes.
