Curriculum description: Aims and Graduate s Profile The aim of the EMAE programme is to qualify its students for professional work in European contexts in the field of adult education and learning. The students will acquire the theoretical knowledge and the practical skills enabling them to act in specific areas of professional practice in this field. They will acquire the necessary cultural-reflexive skills to act in an intercultural context. They will become aware of the opportunities that Europe offers as a potential labour market to adult educators, and will be able to use these opportunities. EMAE graduates will work in a variety of jobs that are directed towards enhancing the learning of adults in Europe. EMAE graduates will typically engage in careers as researchers, administrators, counsellors, instructors, and programme planners. Degree awarded On successful completion of the programme students will be awarded the degree Master of Arts from their home university. In the Diploma Supplement it will be documented that the studies undertaken by the student correspond to the standards that have been agreed by the EMAE network and that the degree represents therefore a European Master in Adult Education. Programme Structure The EMAE is a 120 ECTS study programme. The programme consists of the parts A) Core fields of Adult Education in Europe (25 ECTS) B) AE Research in Europe (5 ECTS) C) Supplementary courses (50 ECTS) D) Transnational Project Work (10 ECTS) E) Master Thesis (30 ECTS) A) In the part Core fields of Adult Education in Europe students will study courses in five key areas in adult education that are of the highest relevance in all European countries, although different approaches and concepts may prevail in the different countries. These are: - Theoretical Framework (A1) - Learning and Teaching (A2) - Management/Marketing (A3) - Policy (A4) - Economy (A5)
Students will be introduced to what is common European ground in each of these areas and in addition learn to recognize the existing differences and compare and assess the different approaches. B) In the part AE Research in Europe students will be introduced both to the most relevant fields and trends of AE research in Europe and to research methods. In this part they will also develop an idea for a research project of their own and set up a research design. This research design may also be used as a basis for the final Master Thesis. Parts A and B are more or less identical in every partner university: The courses belonging to these parts are either offered as trans-national online-seminars for students from all partner universities; or they are offered locally as on-campus courses. In both cases, the course are designed according to a detailed common concept that has been developed and jointly agreed within the EMAE network. C) The Supplementary Course offer varies among the EMAE partner universities and reflects the individual universities particular strengths and areas of interest. Students choose from the already existing courses in their home university according to their interests and according to the regulations of their home university. Typically, offers in this part will include courses to study more in-depth selected topics belonging to the areas covered by part A, or courses to deepen the research competence of the students. They may also include additional offers such as courses to study in depth selected topics of specific national relevance or courses to develop additional skills such as English for education contexts, e.g. D) The Trans-national Project Work is carried out online in one of the topics covered in the part Core fields of Adult Education. Groups of students from various partner universities work together in designing, realising and evaluating a common trans-national project. In this programme part, students will acquire competence and skills for working in intercultural teams, planning, managing and evaluating of projects, and applying theoretical knowledge to practice. Students who spend a semester abroad at another university of the EMAE network may also choose to carry out an individual project/study or to undergo a traineeship in a relevant institution in the partner country instead of doing the online transnational project work. E) The Master Thesis will be supervised by a professor either from the student s respective home university or from another university of the EMAE network. Students will plan and carry out a research project with a European dimension (comparative research or research on a European topic) and present the results in a written report of about 80 pages.
