Erasmus Mundus funding for Photonics Master’s Programmes Related to PREIN
The University of Eastern Finland is involved in two Erasmus Mundus programmes that received funding from the European Commission in 2024. The funding will be for four intakes in from 2025 onwards.
The two programmes are:
The master programme on “Intelligent Photonics for Security, Reliability, Sustainability, and Safety” (iPSRS) has officially been funded by the European Commission as an Erasmus Mundus Joint Master From 2024 to 2030, there will be 80 EMJM scholarships for new master’s students from around the world. The programme focusses on intelligent photonics with a dynamic fusion of Photonics and AI. iPSRS trains the next generation of highly-skilled experts in photonics and data science to address the current and future societal challenges related to security and safety of people, goods and environment.
The programme is coordinated by Université Jean Monnet Saint-Etienne, and the partners are Université Paris-Est Créteil (UPEC), University of Eastern Finland, Vilniaus universitetas / Vilnius University
IMLEX
The 2-year Master Programme (120 ECTS) “Imaging and Light in Extended Reality (IMLEX)” received a renewal of its Erasmus Mundus funding. The programme provides a multidisciplinary and innovative programme combining Imaging, Lighting and Information Technology bringing together image conversion, lighting and computer science. The IMLEX programme is coordinated by the University of Eastern Finland and the other partners are Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium, Toyohashi University of Technology, Japan and Universite Jean Monnet Saint Etienne, France

Currently there are five Erasmus Mundus programmes in the field of photonics that involve the PREIN partner universities, three in University of Eastern Finland, the third being “Computational Colour and Spectral Imaging” (COSI) and two in Tampere University: “EuroPhotonics,” (https://www.europhotonics.org/wordpress/) and the “Imaging Mundus” (https://www.emjm-imaging.eu/) programmes.
In addition, the I-DEEP partner university, University of Jyväskylä has one Erasmus Mundus programme related to photonics, “Radiation and its Effects on MicroElectronisc and Photonics Technologies” (RADMEP) master-radmep.org
