EMARO Joint Programme in Advanced Robotics

Background

The EMARO (European Master on Advanced Robotics) programme welcomed its first students in 2008, under the Erasmus Mundus European Programme of Excellence label. The programme was extended in 2014 as the Erasmus+ (EMARO+) programme.

As the European funding cycle of EMARO+ recently came to an end, two of the partner institutions decided to maintain this project and the community around it by concluding an EMARO Double Degree agreement.

The programme enjoys strong recognition, both in the industrial and academic world, thanks in particular to the international cooperation it fosters, both in teaching and research.

The 2 partner institutions for the EMARO Double Degree programme are:

• Centrale Nantes, France
• University of Genova, Italy

Eligibility

To be eligible to apply for the double degree programme, students must be enrolled in the first year (M1) of one of the following local master's programmes:

• MSc Control and Robotics - Advanced Robotics at Centrale Nantes in France.
• Master in Robotics Engineering (Laurea Magistrale in Robotica) at the University of Genova in Italy

How to apply

During the first year of one of these Master's programmes, students can apply for the EMARO double degree programme at a second partner institution. They can apply by sending a CV and a cover letter to their institution of choice:

• For an M2 at Centrale Nantes, contact admission4f0407c3-837c-4b20-ac1e-5f8ad64edec0@ec-nantes.fr
• For an M2 at the University of Genova in Italy, contact emaro-robeng@dibris.unige.it

Both institutions assess the candidate's application together.

• Students can enquire of their M1 institution whether they are eligible for an Erasmus+ mobility grant
• Consortium scholarships may also be awarded by joint decision of the two host institutions.
