Semester Four – Research Project
Please see https://master-asc.eu/ for updated information and the offer of the other universities.
The selected students will study in at least two countries. A standard study abroad period of two semesters (one academic year) is recommended, the simplest scheme being a selection of two different locations: one per academic year, according to the specialisation field of the targeted Master's thesis topic. As an exception, students can visit up to three universities. Students who wish to come back to the University of Lille for the Master's thesis in the fourth semester will have to spend the second and/or third semester at another location.
For the first semester, all ASC students will have the University of Lille as their host university. For the second semester, they can choose between the universities of Lille, Bologna and Leipzig. The institution for the second year of the Master's programme can be chosen from all partner universities, according to the scientific specialisation of the university and the students' plans for the future. We strongly recommend that the Master's thesis be based on a collaborative project between two of the partner institutions.
The above-mentioned modules comprise lectures, seminars and lab units. Details can be found in the module descriptions.
The study abroad plan for each individual is discussed and organised during the first semester in Lille, France.
