About the Program
The FAME-AIS Erasmus Mundus Joint Master's (EMJM) proposal, Functional Advanced Materials Engineering with Artificial Intelligence for Sustainability, aims to produce high-level graduates who have mastered sound fundamentals with respect to materials science. Graduates will be proactive in mobilising artificial intelligence methods and addressing sustainability challenges in the field of functional materials, recognised as a strategic key enabling technology for European research and industry. The overall objective of the FAME-AIS programme is to train the most promising students from all over the world in all aspects of materials sciences applied to functional materials. They will be able to use artificial intelligence to develop new paths to design and manufacture sustainable materials. Fully taught in English, this 120 ECTS Master's programme will lead to double Master's degrees in Materials Science and gives students the possibility of earning joint degrees. FAME-AIS will gather seven European high-level universities, leading in the field of materials science: Aveiro in Portugal, Bordeaux and Grenoble Institute of Technology in France, Augsburg and Darmstadt in Germany, Liège and Louvain-la-Neuve in Belgium. The FAME-AIS curriculum implements artificial intelligence training and sustainability considerations through the teaching of physics and chemistry of materials. The teaching assets rely on innovative learning practices based on a learning-by-doing approach, virtual exchanges and blended mobility. Associated partners from industry, RTOs, worldwide universities and alumni are strongly involved in student mentorships, e-seminars, plant visits, company internships and the Master's thesis. Prepared to work in a multicultural professional environment, FAME-AIS graduates will join industry and/ or PhD positions, or they may even start their own businesses in the technological domain of functionalised advanced materials, tackling both technological and sustainability challenges.
