This Erasmus Mundus MFAMILY is a two year master programme
of 120 ECTS. Students will spend a semester each in Lisbon, Stavanger and
Gothenburg before moving to the desired partner institution to work on their
master’s thesis. The language of instruction for the programme is English. Upon
completion of the programme, students will be awarded a joint degree by the
consortium.
The programme is jointly developed by ISCTE - University
Institute of Lisbon (ISCTE-IUL), University of Gothenburg (UGOT), University of
Stavanger (UiS) and Makerere University (MU). MFAMILY is also proud of the
active participation of 26 associate partners, 8 of which are higher education
institutions from several continents. This gives the programme a truly global
character, and a great potential to respond to needs in skills development,
teaching, research and employability in the area of social work with children
and families.
Applicants are prompted to apply for an Erasmus Mundus
scholarship when applying for MUNDUSFAMILY (except if they have benefited from
such scholarship before). Scholarships will be awarded according to the ranking
list, taking into account that no more than two students selected may have the
same nationality; in case of equal qualification the female applicant or
applicant with special needs is preferred. The selected students have to sign a
Erasmus Mundus Student Agreement. All MUNDUSFAMILY students are guaranteed
accommodation at the hosting universities upon arrival. This will be specified
in the letter sent to the selected students.
