Description:

Erasmus Mundus EMCL (European Masters in Clinical Linguistics) programme: 
invitation for student applications and application procedure update

IMPORTANT NOTE concerning the application procedure: while the application 
deadline is still January 1, 2007, due to organisational reasons your 
application has to REACH the application agency until that day. Unfortunately, 
we cannot consider the date of the postmark any more. Please read through 
the respective information on our website (see below) and in the application 
form carefully.

Programme information:

The Erasmus Mundus EMCL ('European Masters in Clinical Linguistics') course 
is a 15 month full-time interdisciplinary and transnational university 
programme at Masters level providing integrated training in theoretical and 
experimental neurosciences and psycholinguistics with clinical issues. The 
aim of the Masters Course is to train highly qualified advanced students who 
are excellently prepared for research work and PhD-programmes in the above 
fields. 

The transnational consortium comprises four universities: Groningen (NL), 
Joensuu (FI), Milano-Bicocca (IT) and Potsdam (DE). The programme consists 
of three terms: the core courses offered in the first term aim at providing the 
students with general knowledge about the fields mentioned above. During 
the second and third term, the students attend specialised courses. For the 
second term, students may choose to move from their first host university to 
another one, while all students meet at the University of Potsdam during the 
third term. To finish the programme successfully, the student writes a 
Masters thesis and attends a summer school or conference. All courses are 
taught in English. 

The programme recruits students worldwide. In order to encourage 
application by students from non-European countries and thus give the 
EMCL-programme a strong extra-European profile, non-European students
admitted to the programme will receive an Erasmus Mundus scholarship 
covering tuition fees, living and travelling costs. 

European students pay a reduced tuition fee and - pending acknowledgement 
by the European Union - may receive a scholarship for spending part of the 
programme at a non-European partner institution. The requirement for  
admission is at least three years of higher education (BA, BSc or equivalent) 
with an emphasis on speech and language pathology, linguistics, biomedical  
sciences, psychology or special education. 

We invite high profile students from all over the world to submit their 
applications for participation in the 2007/08 course (which starts in 
September 2007) until January 1, 2007 (application deadline). 

Admission and mobility plan for each student are decided on at the annual 
meeting of the Board of Studies at the end of January. Students will be 
informed in early summer if their application was successful. For more 
detailed information on Erasmus Mundus, the EMCL programme's aims, 
curriculum, admission criteria, scholarships, organisation, contact 
information etc., please visit our website at:

For further information, non-European applicants may also contact Dr. Frank 
Burchert (info at emcl-mundus.com). European students send their requests 
about the programme to Dr. Roel Jonkers (r.jonkers at let.rug.nl).
