This Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree in Aquaculture, Environment and Society (EMJMD, ACES) offers specialised training to deliver highly skilled graduates capable of addressing the challenge of food provision for a growing world population.
Food security is of global importance and, in the face of declining resources, aquaculture will have an increasingly demand for people with in-depth knowledge and practical expertise to enable this major industry to produce nutritious, high-quality and affordable foods. Graduates will be capable of addressing these challenges and will have exciting international career opportunities.
The course is delivered by an international team of experts at: Scottish Association for Marine Science UHI; University of Crete (Greece); and University of Nantes (France).
The EMJMD ACES programme is aimed at students from all over the world. Candidates must have a Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in one of the fields of environmental or social sciences, as well as a good level of English (at least IELTS 6.5). Basic French is recommended; (although not essential as intensive French language classes are provided), for daily living in Semester 2. Admission is granted on the basis of a competitive selection procedure.
The course is open to International students, who are able to study at SAMS-UHI under a "Short Term" study visa, which allows students to study for a period of 6 months in the UK before moving to the University of Crete.
A limited number of Erasmus+ Scholarships are available on a competitive basis for each intake to cover the tuition fees, living and travel expenses. Any student can apply for a scholarship and applications from EU and particularly non-EU candidates are welcome.
