*Coordinated by Centrale Nantes

Centrale Nantes is member of the EMACT association, the Erasmus Mundus Association for Consortia CooperaTion. It is the network of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters programmes (EMJMs) bringing together more than 80 consortia across Europe. EMJMs are European integrated Master's Courses of Excellence. Students spend their studies in at least two different European countries, and are awarded joint or multiple degrees at the end. Launched at the initiative of the University of Compiègne in France during Covid-19 period, the network continues its expansion and actions to enhance and improve the development of EMJM programmes. Working meetings are held regularly with key stakeholders such as the European Education and Culture Executive Agency (EACEA), EMA association or the EMSI project's team to progress toward strategic actions. EMACT aims to develop exchanges of practises and take collective initiatives to promote European Joint Degree Programmes, and academic cooperation at the global level.

A website is currently under construction for EMACT. If you are an institution already coordinating an Erasmus Mundus consortium, you can:
