Overview
The Erasmus Mundus Doctorate in Membrane Engineering (EUDIME) is designed to implement - at international level - excellence, innovation, mobility and multidisciplinarity in investigation approaches related to membrane science and technology. The consortium includes six leading partner institutions: University of Twente (The Netherlands), Institute of Chemical Technology Prague (Czech Republic), University of Montpellier 2 and University Paul Sabatier-Toulouse (France), University of Leuven (Belgium), and University of Calabria (Italy).
In addition, ten associate partners are part of the EUDIME consortium: University of Lisboa (Portugal), University of Zaragoza (Spain), RWTH Aachen (Germany), the European Membrane Society, the European Membrane House, and five industrial companies well-reputed in the field: SAPIO S.r.L. and GVS S.p.A. (Italy), Veolia Environment (France), Alfa Laval A/S (Denmark), and Mikropur s.r.o.(Czech Republic).
RESEARCH THEMES
Membrane systems for desalination and water purification
(Bio-Catalytic) Membrane Reactors for wastewater treatment
Nanofabrication / inorganic-hybrid membranes/molecular-scale monitoring
Electrolyte membranes for fuel cells
Membranes for gas separation, catalytic reactors & biofuel production
Biomedical membrane processes/ Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients/Food formulation
Admission criteria
Candidates must hold a 2nd Level Master Degree (120 ECTS) or a Single-Cycle Degree (minimum 240 ECTS) in Chemical Engineering or Bio-Engineering, Materials Science, Chemistry or a equivalent degree in a pertinent field, awarded by a College, University or Technical School with recognized standing.
Candidates are required to provide all appropriate information supporting their ability to apply and complete a doctoral programme: academic record, professional experience and qualification, motivation letter and letters of recommendation.
Candidates are required to demonstrate their proficiency in English, either by proving that some of their previous studies were successfully completed in English, or by submitting the results of a recognized language proficiency test (TOEFL iBT with minimum required score of 80, TRINITY ISE ESOL II, IELTS with minimum score of 5.5, or equivalent tests to level B2 or higher). In some cases (PET, certificates from Schools of English equivalent to level B1, or absence of certification) the applicant is asked to confirm their good command of English by phone interview or teleconference.
