About Mechanical Engineering, MSc - at Trinity College Dublin

This course is sponsored by the Erasmus Mundus programme of the EU. The candidate must spend each year in a
different institute and Trinity College Dublin, if chosen, must be attended in the first year (see www.emmme.com). All options are available. It is intended for holders of suitable Engineering or Scientific qualifications who wish to acquire
Engineering degrees recognised in two member states of the European Union. It is tailored primarily for students from outside the EU, who may apply for scholarships to cover their fees and living expenses.

Students from within the EU may also enrol, but are not eligible for scholarships. To comply with EU rules, students holding Irish third level qualifications should not enrol for the options described here, but for the options run entirely by the other partners.

The course is spread over two calendar years from the beginning of October, and requires full-time study. The first year is spent in Trinity College, and the second in one of the partner institutions: the INSA de Lyon and the Escola Tecnica Superior d'Enginyeria Industrial de Barcelona (E.T.S.E.I.B.).

language of the country.
