contact the Consortium offering the Masters /Doctoral Programmes for
more information.

For
the academic year 2013/2014 you are advised to consult in advance the
websites of each of the Erasmus Mundus Joint Programmes (Masters/Doctorates)
that interest you. There you will find all necessary information
