Requirements

An international experience

During each of the four semesters, students live in and experience a different European country and a different European university: a coordinated study programme awaits them at the universities of Porto, Luxembourg, Mainz and Palermo.

A joint international degree

Students are registered as regular students at all four universities for all four semesters. After successfully completing the programme, each student receives a joint Master’s diploma from all four universities – and thus receives four European master degrees in one.
