EMLE Alumni Activities

The EMLE Alumni Platform is a web-based forum for EMLE alumni, which allows them to create personal profiles, to upload their CVs and publications, and to easily stay in touch using the platform's email function. The initiative was started during the academic year 2007/2008 but an increasing number of alumni from much earlier years already use the forum. Registered members can access the platform here. To request a new account, EMLE alumni should contact Mr. Louis Visscher

The Society of Students of the Erasmus Programme in Law and Economics is an international student organisation of alumni and current students of the academic programme. Its goal is to "serve as a channel and provide a venue for the collaborative efforts both within and beyond the academe of students of the Programme in pursuit of academic excellence, holistic learning and life-long fellowship". The Society was founded on December 3, 2002, by ten students of the Academic Year 2002-2003. The platform of action identified by the founding members include the establishment of a Journal, the establishment of an Annual Conference and the founding of Chapters across the world.

Student Voices

"Dear Prospective EMLE Students,
Dear Professors,

I am very happy for being an EMLE student and in particular having had the chance to study in two renowned universities, respectively ILE/Hamburg University-Germany and RILE, Eramus University Rotterdam.

Being a non EU student, I was eligible and lucky to be granted the Eramus Mundus Merit Scholarship from the European Commission for Education and Science.

This programme has enabled me to make use of economic methods to explain the efficiency of laws. I was impressed from the high profile of lecturers and their devotion to this school of thought. EMLE Programme is not like a usual LL.M. programme - it goes beyond by providing new insights and approaches.

Furthermore, the EMLE programme helped me to build up precious friendship with young people coming all over the continents! I miss my EMLE friends.

Last but not least, My special thanks and gratitude go to Prof. Dr. Thomas Eger for his patience, very high teaching performance and kindness.

Best Wishes,

Zamira Xhaferri"

EUA Joint Masters Programme

This project of the European University Association analysed the possibilities of joint degree programmes in Europe as innovative examples of inter-university cooperation and as pillars of the future European higher education development. EMLE was among the eleven programmes that were selected for this pilot project.

Accreditation by NVAO and ZEvA

In August 2004, the EMLE programme in Rotterdam and Ghent was accredited by the NVAO, the Dutch Flemish Accreditation Agency. The NVAO is the official agency in the Netherlands and Flanders to certify that a programme meets the quality criteria as formulated by the Dutch and Flemish government.
In February 2005 the EMLE programme in Hamburg was accredited by the ZEvA, the Central Accreditation Agency of the Federal State of Lower Saxony. The ZEvA is one of the official agencies in Germany to certify that a programme fulfils the national German quality standards set by the German Conference of the Ministers of Education.

Erasmus Mundus Masters Course

The Erasmus Mundus programme is a co-operation and mobility programme in the field of higher education. It aims to enhance quality in European higher education and to promote intercultural understanding through co-operation with third countries. The programme is intended to strengthen European co-operation and international links in higher education by supporting high-quality European Masters Courses, by enabling students and visiting scholars from around the world to engage in postgraduate study at European universities, as well as by encouraging the outgoing mobility of European students and scholars towards third countries.
