On November 2022 the University of Genoa (Unige) and MCI University | The Entrepreneurial School® , in Innsbruck (Austria) have signed an updated version of their Agreement aimed at activating a Double Degree curriculum of studies named European Master in Engineering for Energy and Environmental Sustainability (EM3ES), delivering a double MSc degree in Environmental, Process and Energy Engineering (EP2E, at MCI) and in Energy Engineering (En2, at Unige).
This European Master is the first signed by Unige under the Ulysseus Project.
Ulysseus aims at offering European degrees to students of six Universities (Seville, Nice, Genova, MCI Innsbruck, Kosice, Helsinki), enlarging the teaching offer.

Students admitted to the EM3ES program will be enrolled and will attend classes in both Universities and they finally will be able to get the double Title in Italy and Austria. Up to two (2) students per year (and per Uni) are allowed to participate in the DD program.
According to EM3ES Double Degree Program, DD students move to the Hosting University after completing the first year of their MSc at the Registration University (60 ECTS).
