The University of Jyväskylä in Finland, the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium, and the University of Montpellier are joining forces to enhance the appeal of European higher education and promote student employability by supporting excellence in master's degree programs and offering scholarships to the world's best students.

Focusing on the effects of radiation on photonics and microelectronics, the RADMEP Master's program aims to train students in these key technological advances for the future of Europe. This program provides them with methodologies and practical applications for the new challenges of space, aeronautics, autonomous and electric vehicles, and nuclear decommissioning.

RADMEP Master's Program

The first and second semesters will be held in Jyväskylä and at the Catholic University of Leuven, respectively. In the third semester, students will have the choice of specializing at Jean Monnet University in Saint-Etienne in the option "effects of radiation on photonic technologies" or at the Faculty of Sciences of UM in the program "effects of radiation on microelectronic technologies and advanced electronic technologies." This partnership is part of the University of Montpellier's strategy to internationalize its education and contributes to its influence in Europe and around the world.
