Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters are esteemed international master’s degrees, jointly designed and delivered by a consortium of higher education institutions across various disciplines. These programmes typically involve at least three institutions from three different countries and multiple associated partners from both academic and non-academic sectors. The programmes usually include sessions dedicated to study, research, traineeship, thesis preparation, and presentation.

The EMCL++ programme is offered by a consortium of three European universities: the University of Groningen (Netherlands), the University of Ghent (Belgium), and the University of Eastern Finland (Finland), with the University of Groningen serving as the coordinating institution. This research master’s programme provides comprehensive training in psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics, and clinical linguistics. Graduates are not only well-prepared for research roles but are also highly employable in the R&D and clinical sectors, because of the involvement of representatives from these sectors as associated partners in the programme.

Congratulations and best wishes to Ms. Prajna Sinha.
