1. European Master in Language and Speech

• The contents covered by the European Masters can
  be part of an existing Masters or undergraduate
  studies. Many models are conceivable, depending
  on national laws. By separating the European
  Certificate from any legal degrees students may
  obtain, a truly European (or international)
  quality stamp can be realised. The flexibility of
  the scheme may interest a wide range of students
  with a background in Linguistics, Electrical
  Engineering, Computer Science and others to chose
  for a specialisation of their studies in the area
  of language and speech

6. European Master's in Clinical Linguistics

• The idea for a European Master's in Clinical
  Linguistics (EMCL) was launched by the European
  Language Council (ELC). The project started in
  1998 as a Task Force of the ELC and is financed
  by the European Union, under Socrates. The first
  (pilot) year of this course will begin in
  September 2000.
• The idea behind a Master's in Clinical
  Linguistics is that treatment of people (both
  adults and children) with language disorders
  requires more indepth knowledge of linguistics
  and theoretical linguistics requires more indepth
  knowledge of the relation between language and
  cognition than is provided at the polytechnics
  and universities in most European countries. All
  courses will be taught in English.

22
6. European Master's in Clinical Linguistics

• Introduction
• This project involves a university programme at
  advanced level (Master's type) in Clinical
  Linguistics, providing an integrated training in
  both neurolinguistic theory and clinical methods.
  Speech and language therapists who follow this
  programme will be better equipped to assess and
  treat persons with a language impairment because
  of the additional knowledge they acquire about
  the theoretical background of the language
  disorders they are dealing with. Students with a
  background in linguistics or psychology will
  become acquainted with the clinical situation, so
  that they will be able to develop better
  assessment and treatment materials. It is
  envisaged that a certain cross-fertilisation will
  take place as well, as a result of which speech
  and language therapists will contribute to the
  development of material or tests, while students
  with a more theoretical background get involved
  in clinical activities.

6. European Master's in Clinical Linguistics

• Programme
• The total number of credits required for
  completing the programme will be 60 (in
  ECTSEuropean Credit Transfer System) terms. This
  is one year of study, full time. The core
  programme will consist of 15 ECTS-credits, the
  specialised options (second and third term) will
  amount to 30 ECTS credits, while the thesis will
  represent 15 ECTS credits.
• The programme will consist of an obligatory core
  programme and a limited number of specialised
  options. This core programme aims at providing
  the necessary background in clinical linguistics.
  The courses constituting the core programme will
  be taught during the first term of the academic
  year at each of the participating institutions.
  It is envisaged that students will have to attend
  three of these courses and will get a pass for
  the fourth one on the basis of their background
  in higher education. The subjects covered in the
  courses that constitute the core programme are
• Theoretical linguistics (syntax, semantics,
  morphology, phonology)
• Language impairments (both developmental and
  acquired)
• Experimental Linguistics (including statistics)
• Language acquisition.

7. European Masters Degree in Food Studies

• Introduction
• The idea of a postgraduate programme in Food
  Studies combining teaching and research, directed
  at students from all over Europe, and including
  study periods in various European countries, has
  been under consideration since 1992.
• The initiative was taken by a network of
  European universities, coordinated by Escola
  Superior de Biotecnologia (Catholic University of
  Portugal, Porto).
• Early in 1995 this project received partial
  financing from the European Commission, through
  the Agro-Industrial Research Division, AIR
  Programme.
• The purpose of the European Masters Degree is to
  provide scientific and business training in an
  international context, and to create awareness of
  the cultural, social and economic realities of
  the modern European Food Industry.

  (Portugal), University College Cork (Ireland),
  University of Reading (United Kingdom), Šcole
  Nationale Superieure des Industries Agricoles et
  Alimentaires, Massy (France) and the University
  of Lund (Sweden).
• The modules can be divided into three areas
  applied science, management/marketing and
  engineering/technology.

  Programme) in InterCultural Communication (EMICC)
  is a two-year interdisciplinary academic course
  of study designed to enhance the professional
  competence of participants preparing for careers
  with significant intercultural contact. The
  fundamentally international character is one of
  the strong assets of the EMICC Programme. It is

9. European Masters in Occupational Therapy

• The growing need for masters in occupational
  therapy During the last few years developments
  in society and in the profession have given rise
  to interesting challenges for occupational
  therapists. Governments are becoming increasingly
  aware that occupational therapy services can
  enhance the quality of life. At the same time,
  the European Union acknowledges the need for more
  equity of provision for disabled people. And the
  ongoing unification of Europe provides an ideal
  laboratory for the development of occupational
  therapy theory, because similarities and
  differences between cultures facilitate the study
  of effects of the environment in the shaping of
  human beings' occupational lifestyle.

  assessment. The programme's research component is
  an integral part of all modules. A presentation
  of the research outcomes during a conference in

11. European Masters in Renewable Energy

• Introduction
• The European Commission has presented its White
  Paper, targeting at 12 renewable energy of the
  primary energy supply by 2010. The impact of the
  job market of the energy sector is significant
  bio-engineers and farmers will need to develop
  the bio-energy potential, architects will need to
  be educated in solar building design, urban
  planners need to design cities and urban
  developments in an energy conscious way, and
  policy makers will require knowledge to make
  strategic policy choices.

41
11. European Masters in Renewable Energy

• Educational programmes at the moment do not offer
  at a sufficiently wide scale the requirements
  asked by the market. The renewable energy markets
  are growing at an impressive rate, and
  unsufficiently persons can be absorbed by this
  new market because of a lack of training in the
  field. This  project aims at setting up a
  European Master Degree on Renewable Energy, for
  persons with a technical background (engineers,
  bio-engineers, architects with technical
  background, etc), organised by universities of 6
  member states with complementary experiences.
• The proposed EUREC Master Degree is an initiative
  of EUREC Agency with its 42 prominent centres and
  university groups active in renewable energy RDD
  and education.
