An "Erasmus+ Erasmus Mundus Joint Master" programme(since 2008)

CLE is a FULL-TIME 2-YEAR Master's degree programme organized by a consortium of 5 EU and 3 NON-EU universities. It seeks to provide a high quality preparation reflecting the multicultural aspects of Europe, along three main methodological lines: cultural, dynamic and skill-based education. At the end of the two-year program, after defending their Master’s thesis before an international committee, CLE students receive a double or multiple degree issued by the universities of the Consortium where they spent at least one semester.

The language in which the courses are offered may vary according to the University providing them. At the end of the master course, the consortium universities provide a double or multiple degree

·         During the full-time program (23 months) EU and NON-EU students will have the opportunity to join an exciting international environment by spending terms in two or three different consortium universities.   

The program encourages and supports:

-cooperation as well as student, scholar and staff exchange among universities;

- the worldwide promotion of the image of the European Union as a space of academic excellence;

-communication between university and cultural institutions and enterprises (Museums, Publishers, Foundations) as well as public and private companies;

-better career opportunities for its graduates and access to the international workforce.

The CLE Master Course aims at providing international students with excellent T-shaped skills in:

-at least three European languages (English – mandatory, two other languages among French, Italian, Greek or Portuguese);

-at least three domains of European culture and thought (Literature, Art, Cultural History, Ethics and Aesthetics, Science of Language).
