The Joint European Master in Nuclear Fusion Science and Engineering Physics (FUSION-EP ) is offered by the following partners:
* Universiteit Gent, Belgium (coordinator)
* Université de Lorraine, Nancy/Metz, France
* Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain
* Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain
* Universität Stuttgart, Germany
The partners have a long relationship within the framework of the coordinated EURATOM research programme on nuclear fusion. The aim of the Masters programme is to provide a high-level multinational research-oriented education in fusion-related engineering physics, in close relation to the research activities of the partners, together with a well-integrated language and cultural experience. The combined and harmonized teaching & research of the 5 participating universities offers a much broader range of competences in the field of fusion science and engineering physics than could be provided by individual universities, and therefore guarantees a significant added value for the students in terms of specialised opportunities. The Joint European Masters Programme offers a genuine European opportunity for Master level studies in a field which is of crucial importance to solving the very urgent and vital problem of world energy supply. A large number of scientists and engineers will be required in two main categories: “Fusion technology and engineering physics” and “Plasma physics” and their formation takes typically 10 years (operation of the first experiments in ITER is scheduled for 2015), requiring a structured European Master level education. Furthermore, fusion research shows an increasing number of very important spin-offs in many fields of science and engineering, such as new materials, nanotechnologies, superconducting coils, robotics, electronic components, high power RF sources, space propulsion… Finally the EU framework offers many possibilities for summer schools and doctoral studies.

The European Master FUSION-EP offers admission to applicants who appear to have the highest potential for graduate study and who, with the benefit of a graduate education, are the most likely to contribute substantially to their academic or professional fields through teaching, research, or professional practice.
The minimum graduate admission requirements are:
(1) A bachelor's degree or recognized equivalent from an accredited institution (minimum 3 years study)
(2) Sufficient undergraduate training to do graduate work in the chosen field
(3) A satisfactory scholastic average
The FUSION-EP is open to all students who have a Bachelor's degree or a recognized equivalent academic degree of minimum 3 years study in
* physics
* engineering
Applicants with another degree but with experience or knowledge in one of these fields can be admitted on decision by the FUSION-EP Managing Board on the basis of CV and other evidence.
