Mobility rules

Mandatory mobility is a fundamental aspect of the EMJM Bioceb.

The EMJM Bioceb includes compulsory physical mobility for all enrolled students (EMJM scholarship-holders or not) consisting of a minimum of two study periods (1 study period = 30 ECTS) in two countries, which must be different from the country of residence of the student at enrolment stage.

Mobility was conceived as essential for the students’ experience within the programme, as both an opportunity to fully encompass the richness of Bioceb scope, providing thus the best possible training through combinations of competences, and to develop additional adaptability and flexibility skills, giving the students the keys to face the challenges of tomorrow.

• S1 will take place at URCA (France);
• according to the choice of study track, S2 will take place either at AgroParisTech (France) or TalTech (Estonia). A mandatory summer school will take place in Estonia at the end of S2, ensuring that all students have a learning experience in Estonia;
• for students who spent the S2 in Estonia, S3 can take place at AgroParisTech (France), Aalto (Finland) or ULiège (Belgium), according to the chosen specialisations and students’ professional plans;
• for students who spent their S2 in France, S3 can either be in Aalto (Finland) or ULiège (Belgium);
• there is no restriction for S4 Master’s thesis / internship location.

Choice of the study track
When applying to EMJM Bioceb, candidates express their mobility choices based on their preference for one of the five study track offered, in line with their professional goals, thereby developing the skills necessary to thrive in their future careers. The Bioceb Consortium will make the final decision and will communicate the mobility assigned to each selected student in the official Bioceb admission letter.
