  1. Workshop 5 30/11Awarding multiple, double and joint degrees and diploma supplement: opportunities and obstacles Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  2. European Master in Law and Economics (EMLE) • The EMLE Consortium • Integrating the joint curriculum • Multiple versus joint degrees • Recognition of multiple degrees • Diploma Supplement • Conclusions from the EMLE’s experience Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  3. The EMLE Consortium • European partners: • Rotterdam (coordinator) • Hamburg, Bologna, Gent, Manchester, Aix-Marseille, Vienna • Action 3 partner university: Haifa • One year programme (60 ECTS credits) • Second level master Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  4. Integrating the joint curriculum During the first and second term, core courses are taught in three parallel groups (1st term: Rotterdam, Hamburg, Bologna; 2d term: Hamburg, Bologna, Gent) Contents of these core courses are ‘harmonised’ at meetings between teachers During the third term, specialised courses are offered at the third term universities (Rotterdam, Hamburg, Bologna, Aix-Marseille, Vienna, Manchester, Haifa) Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  5. Multiple versus joint degrees For the EMLE Course, a joint degree is not (yet) possible (not possible under Dutch law) Students receive either a double or a triple degree Teachers would prefer a joint degree, making clear that it is a truly integrated programme Students prefer multiple degrees Multiple degrees may make access to the labour market easier Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  6. Recognition and of multiple degrees, including accreditation requirements The degrees must be legally recognised in all countries involved. In some countries (NL, B) this requires accreditation. In other countries (D), accreditation is only a quality brand. Accreditation requirements vary across countries and may also conflict with Erasmus Mundus rules. Joint programmes require joint accreditation. The ENQA (TEEP II project) has suggested joint accreditation by two agencies and automatic recognition by other involved agencies. Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  7. EMLEDiploma Supplement Gives detailed information about: Personal data of the student The courses taken at the partner universities, where the student stayed The grading system Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh

  8. CONCLUSIONS For EMLE, at this moment multiple degrees are the only option. This has both strengths : preferred by students and also by employers And weaknesses: - multiple accreditation; - not an ideal solution for a truly integrated programme. Consortium:EMLE Speaker:Roger Van den Bergh
