Mobility

The choice of a Track and Option deter­mines stu­den­t’s mobil­i­ty (for Semes­ters 1, 2 and 3). The poten­tial mobil­i­ty dur­ing Semes­ter 4 is decid­ed at the begin­ning of Year 2, in rela­tion to the Mas­ter’s the­sis project. The Tracks and Options are:

• Track 1 — Reassess­ing inter­na­tion­al trade
• Track 2 — Refram­ing the inter­na­tion­al mon­e­tary and finan­cial system
• Track 3 — Col­lab­o­rat­ing for a just socioe­co­log­i­cal transition

Options (for Semes­ter 1)

• SFC — Stock-flow con­sis­tent mod­el­ling (in Paris)
• IAM — Inte­grat­ed assess­ment mod­el­ling (in Siena)

The Option deter­mines the insti­tu­tion in which the stu­dent spends the 1st semes­ter (S1).

The track deter­mines the insti­tu­tion in which the stu­dent spends the 2nd and 3rd semes­ters (S2-S3).

Dur­ing Semes­ter 4, stu­dents write their Master’s the­sis (and can choose between com­plet­ing a pro­fes­sion­al intern­ship or work­ing in a research lab). They can choose to spend this time in one of the insti­tu­tions vis­it­ed pre­vi­ous­ly in their path­way or to go at one of the part­ners or asso­ci­at­ed part­ner. The pro­gramme ends with the GLOBAL COOP “Master’s con­fer­ence” (end-June / begin­ning of July).

The table below sum­maris­es the mobil­i­ty rules:

	IAM	UNISI (Siena, Italy)
Track 2 — Refram­ing the inter­na­tion­al mon­e­tary and finan­cial system	SFC	UTC / SU / USN (Paris, France)	UFRJ Rio de Janeiro (Brazil)	UNICAMP Camp­inas (Brazil)

Compulsory physical mobility

All enrolled stu­dents (whether Eras­mus Mundus schol­ar­ship hold­ers or not) are required to com­plete a min­i­mum of two phys­i­cal mobil­i­ty study peri­ods, each last­ing at least one aca­d­e­m­ic semes­ter (30 ECTS cred­its or equiv­a­lent), in two coun­tries dif­fer­ent from their coun­try of res­i­dence at the time of enrol­ment. One of these coun­tries must be an EU Mem­ber States or third coun­tries asso­ci­at­ed to the Pro­gramme (i.e. North Mace­do­nia, Ser­bia, Ice­land, Liecht­en­stein, Nor­way, Türkiye). Com­pul­so­ry mobil­i­ty peri­ods can­not be replaced by vir­tu­al mobil­i­ty (dis­tance learning).

Con­crete­ly, spe­cif­ic con­straints may arise for stu­dents res­i­dent in France, Italy or Brazil at enrol­ment stage: (i) Stu­dents enrolled in ‘option SFC’ who are res­i­dents of France at the time of enrol­ment will be required to spend S4 in an EU Mem­ber State or a third coun­try asso­ci­at­ed with the Pro­gramme, exclud­ing France; (ii) Stu­dents enrolled in ‘option IAM’ who are res­i­dents of Italy at the time of enrol­ment will be required to stay in an EU Mem­ber State or a third coun­try asso­ci­at­ed with the Pro­gramme, exclud­ing Italy, dur­ing S4; (iii) Stu­dents enrolled in Track 2 who are res­i­dents of Brazil at the time of enrol­ment must spend S4 in a coun­try dif­fer­ent from those vis­it­ed dur­ing Semes­ters 1 to 3.
