World class post-graduate funding/research opportunity at Department of Chemical Engineering,
CUI, under Erasmus Mundus Master in Chemical Innovation and Regulation (EMMC-ChIR) program.
The Erasmus Mundus Master Course in Chemical Innovation and Regulation (EMMC-ChIR) - is an MSc
degree program for professionals concerned with the safety and regulation of chemical substances. The
program will provide the professionals with all the tools and knowledge needed from the scientific, the
regulatory and the economic point of view to manage the risks of chemicals responsibly and to meet
responsibilities over chemical legislation worldwide.
Under this program, students will take 1 year of classes in the Host University and perform one year
research in another European University in a different country. Research can also be partially done in
one of the non-EU partner universities in Brazil, China, USA, India or Japan, or in one of the 20 associate
partner institutions including Department of Chemical Engineering, COMSATS University Islamabad-
Lahore Campus.
The project will receive 4.4 million euros in this edition to fund student grants (2021-2025). Erasmus
Mundus Scholars from Pakistan will be welcomed to collaborate in the project and also, MSc students
from across the world may receive funding to do research in collaboration with COMSATS.
This is obviously a great news for our post-graduate students. This will not only provide new
opportunities to our graduates but also remove barriers in their international mobility for funded and
research oriented higher studies at top ranked international universities.
Classes start in September 2021. Applications will open in October 2020.
