Associate partners

In addition to its core universities in Denmark, Germany, Spain and Portugal, the JEMES CiSu programme also involve a number of associated partner universities, which are responsible for receiving the JEMES CiSu students for half a semester (15 ECTS) during their 3rd semester. This mobility is mandatory for all students except 3rd country students with an Erasmus Mundus scholarship. A mobility overview is provided here.

Beijing Normal University (Beijing, China)

The Institute of Environmental Sciences (IES) at Beijing Normal University was founded in 1983. IES was one of the first established institutions of its kind in China with the responsibility of providing educational programs and conducting research in the field of environmental sciences. In 2002, IES officially became the School of Environment with augmented ability of educating students and conducting research. The School of Environment now has 66 faculty members in total, including 24 full time professors. Among the 24 FT professors three have been granted the 'Leading Personage for the Scientific Subject Over to the Next Century', two have been granted the 'National Outstanding Youth Science Fund'. Now there are 7 institutes in the school and the Grant and Funds is over 5 million USD per year. It has established a set of theory and method system of the regional strategy environment impact assessment and the key research of school covers eutrophication mechanisms and pollution control, photogedradation etc.

Columbia University (New York, USA)

The Earth Institute at Columbia University comprises more than 30 research centers and some 850 scientists, postdoctoral fellows, staff and students. Working across many disciplines, solutions for problems in public health, poverty, energy, ecosystems, climate, natural hazards and urbanization are studied and created. The Institute focuses on the protection of earth's environment and the spread of social and economic opportunities for all people. The notion is that dealing with issues such as extreme poverty must involve tackling issues such as environmental degradation, and lack of access to health care and education. The work reflects the fundamental belief that the world possesses the tools needed to effectively mitigate climate change, poverty and other critical issues.
