Renewal of another Erasmus Mundus Programme at Centrale Nantes

The EMship+ programme has been designed to provide high level education in Naval Architecture and Ship & Offshore Design, through a 2-year Master degree. EMship+ implies mobility in minimum two EU countries, with a possibility of an internship in a third country (Italy, Romania, UK and France, or further afield: Japan, USA, Australia, Korea, Brazil etc.)

The consortium is composed of nine European universities with strong expertise in the diverse fields of Marine Engineering. Four universities which deliver the double degree:

• University of Liège (Belgium), programme coordinator 
• University of Rostock (Germany)
• Centrale Nantes (France)
• Polytechnic University of Madrid (UPM - Spain)

Other academic partners providing internship topics among other actions:

• Dunarea de Jos University of Galati (Romania)
• ICAM - Institut Catholique d’Arts et Métiers (France)
• Southampton Solent University (UK)
• University of Genova (Italy)
• West Pomeranian University of Technology (Poland)

Seven prestigious universities worldwide are also partners of the consortium:

• University of Michigan (USA)
• University of Osaka (Japan)
• Istanbul Technical University (Turkey)
• Federal University of Rio de Janeiro (Brasil)
• Pusan National University (South Korea)
• University of New South Wales (Australia)
• University of Sciences and Technology of Oran (Algeria)

Finally, a strategic Advisory Board consisting of high level decision makers of leading European maritime companies and representatives from the associated universities actively contribute to the total quality management.
