Erasmus Mundus
Erasmus Mundus Joint Master (2022-2028)
The Erasmus Mundus SARENA (SAfe and REliable Nuclear Applications) programme is a prestigious two-year Master of Science (MSc) programme in the field of nuclear engineering. This programme is designed to provide students with comprehensive knowledge and skills necessary to work in various domains related to nuclear energy and applications. The curriculum is fully taught in English and covers a wide range of topics, including nuclear power plant design and operation, safety management, radioactive waste management, and decommissioning of nuclear installations. SARENA emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, integrating scientific, technical, and management aspects of nuclear engineering. One of the key features of the programme is its international focus, welcoming students from diverse cultural backgrounds and fostering collaboration among participants from around the world. Through rigorous academic training and practical experiences, SARENA aims to produce highly competent professionals capable of contributing to the safe and reliable advancement of nuclear technology and its applications globally.
Erasmus Mundus Design Measure (2023-2024)
The Erasmus Mundus Design Measure in Digital and Green Value Chain (DiGeeVal) will be an international study programme of excellence based on the integration of Industrial Engineering, Data Science & Optimization, and Management Science, strongly connected with the international challenges related to Value Chain sustainability, resilience and competitiveness. It aims at developing strong scientific, technical, societal and management skills. This multi- and inter-disciplinary approach is essential for the design and development of global supply chains, including logistics, production, transport, services and sustainable operations for all sectors of the economy.
DiGeeVal will be designed as a joint-master programme that allows students to study in at least 2 European countries offering opportunities for mobilities, options, degrees and finally job profiles. Double/multiple diplomas will first be awarded to the students and the partners will target a joint diploma. Possiblities will be offered to do mobilities in 3 different countries, also thanks to the fourth semester where students will be free to choose their internship location.
Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degrees (2020-2026)
The Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's Programme in Management and Engineering of Environment and Engineering (ME3+) The ME3+ programmeme is a full 2-year master, totally taught in English and accounts for 120 ECTS. It includes an academic period that lasts for 3 semesters and ends with an industrial or research project semester called “Master Thesis”. Each semester is accounting for 30 ECTS. Three study tracks are proposed to train the future project managers in renewable energy integration and environment (study track 1), in environment and resource recovery towards the circular economy (study track 2) and in smart cities and industry 4.0 (study track 3).

Capacity building
A new Eramsus+ cooperation partnership for the research department in IT : DECART 2022-25
The DECART project (Design of higher Education Curricula for Agility, Resilience & Transformations) focuses on models, methods and processes to support curriculum transformations in engineering and management training systems, with a view to enhancing resilience. Coordinated by IMT Atlantique, the project involves researchers from Reykjavik University in Iceland, Rennes Business School in France, Vilnius University in Lithuania, University of KwaZulu Natal in South Africa, and Del Institute of Technology in Indonesia.
The EASTEM project "Euro-Asia Collaboration for Enhancing STEM Education" (2019-2022), focuses on "Capacity Building" with Universities in South East Asia. It supports the modernization of the higher education systems of 10 universities in 3 partner countries, namely: Vietnam, Thailand and Indonesia.
Strategic partnerships
The DAhoy project is an Erasmus+ KA2 Strategic Partnership whose aim is to support Innovation. Its purpose is to investigate innovative educational ideas around Decision Making, with a view to:
- deeply reinforcing Decision Making skills for renewed and rejuvenated integrative educational programmes in Higher Education (HE) and Vocational Education & Training (VET)
- promoting both internal use and intensive dissemination of this framework, for continuous development of HE and VET practices.
INNOSID (Innovative Solutions based on Emerging Technologies to Improve the Social Inclusion of People with Disabilities) is an Erasmus+ KA2 European partnership project whose main objective is to improve the SOCIAL INCLUSION of PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES (PWDS) by designing and developing FREE ICT* SOLUTIONS to enable communication, support education and raise awareness of the needs and capabilities of people with disabilities.
INNOSID will :
- Develop a multilingual facility for existing and adapted ICT tools to facilitate the social inclusion of people with disabilities
- Develop new ICT tools for the inclusion of people with disabilities
- Propose a cross-cultural study of emerging technologies to serve the inclusion of people with disabilities
*ICT: Information and Communication Technologies
The KA203 project "Training of future ICT experts based on the needs of the Intelligent Society (SmartSoc)" is managed by a consortium of twelve universities from nine EU countries, coordinated by the University of Žilina. The main objective of the SmartSoc project is to create and implement an intensive, interdisciplinary study programme in the field of ICT-based entrepreneurship, taking into account the transnational and intercultural context. This project will enable teams of ICT students to address economic, societal and environmental challenges.
SmartSoc will bring together students from the 12 universities to work, first remotely and then during a 2-week seminar on an innovative project.
SmartSoc brings ICT expertise related to the needs of the smart society, with a particular focus on entrepreneurship and skills related to the evaluation of business perspectives and societal implications of the proposed solution, with an intercultural perspective.
Cooperation partnerships in Higher Education
Play2Green’s general objective is to raise awareness of environment and fight against climate change among neglected categories of learners. Specifically, we aim to tackle the aforementioned objective by completing the following specific objectives:
• Increase the number of HEI students and lecturers who covered green topics during their studies
• Provide innovative green-themed educational resources to everyone
The potential solution lies in the innovative green-themed educational resources which can be used by everyone, specifically HEI students, but also high-school students, people with disabilities.
The universal design principles will be used when designing such resources.
In the HEI context, such resources can then be embedded into existing non-green courses as part of the lecture materials, laboratory exercises etc.
Serious games based on emerging technologies (i.e. augmented reality and hologram) which are used to educate learners on green topics will be conceived and proposed.
EduIDT general objective is todevelop application of Inclusive Design Thinking (IDT) to the education process at universities.
The project's main goal is to apply inclusive design thinking methodology into the technically oriented subjects at the universities by providing all necessary information, knowledge, materials, and support to teachers to facilitate its use in their subjects. Achieving this goal will contribute to creating innovative, inclusive solutions in the academic environment, leading to building an inclusive society
European universities
The European Universities initiative aims to stimulate and strengthen international cooperation between higher education institutions, at a systemic, structural and sustainable level. The European Universities aim to bring together a new generation of creative Europeans, capable of cooperating in different languages, across borders and disciplines, to meet Europe's societal challenges and bridge the skills shortages it faces.
Institut Mines-Télécom has become a member of the EULiST consortium, which was signed on October 20, 2022 at the EULiST rectors' meeting at King Juan Carlos University in Madrid.
The EULiST Alliance is a consortium of 10 universities with complementary strengths in the technical, humanities and social sciences. Together, the EULiST Alliance comprises over 200,000 students and 20,000 academic and administrative staff. EULiST Alliance members have, in the past, been actively engaged in facilitating mobility between universities, whether through long-standing bilateral relationships or through the multilateral Erasmus+ agreement, in place since 2021.
