Europe : Erasmus Mundus-International Master in Advanced Clay Science

IMACS (International Master in Advanced Clay Science) is the first multi-disciplinary programme
that brings together the widely-distributed knowledge of clay science.

IMACS is an integrated 2 years master programme delivered by five Universities : the University of Poitiers (France), the Technical University of Crete (Chania - Greece), the University of Aveiro (Portugal), the University of Ottawa (Canada) and the Federal University of Rio Grande Do Sul (Porto Alegre – Brazil), and is supported by the French Clay Group (GFA) and AIPEA (International Association for the Study of Clay Minerals) which are associated members of IMACS.

During the first year, basic knowledge on clays, recent developments in clays and analytical techniques are provided, followed by a four month master project, which completes the first year programme. The second year incorporates two elective specialization options in the following fields: 1) Environment, soil and geological systems, 2) Geomaterials and civil engineering – Assessment and processing, 3) Advanced clay – nanomaterials, and 4) Healing minerals. The master thesis (6 months) completes this second year and can be carried out at any of the partner research laboratories which constitute a network of more than 20 labelled research laboratories and numerous private companies

The application is an online procedure. However, the originals of academic documents, hardcopy of letters and application report have to be sent by post mail by the deadline.

The online process saves automatically your data on our website and you have the possibility to update and correct them until the official deadline.
