All courses of this Master of Science program will be taught in English. That is why students whose native language is not English must take English examinations prior to applying to the Master program. For more information, please see Admission prerequisites.

The course is designed to provide a two-year (120 ECTS) education program in Advanced Materials Science within 7 European universities from Germany, France, Belgium and Portugal. These institutions host world-renowned leading research laboratories in the field of Advanced Materials Science. The students will benefit from the best practices used at these institutions and will take part in the management of scientific research-oriented projects. Students are required to spend Year 1 and 2 in at least two institutes from different countries.

Mandatory and optional courses are integrated and taught by distinguished professors and researchers who interact closely in the frame of the European research Network of Excellence FAME. The curriculum consists of three semesters taught within the Consortium universities plus one semester for the Master thesis in a European research laboratory. The first two semesters are devoted to general topics in the field of functional materials science. The third semester is dedicated to a specialization in one of the seven different universities, as shown in the Student mobility chart.
