The CINTEL course programme and study units presented on this website were prepared as part of the work for INSET, an EU-supported programme under the Commission’s Erasmus Mundus Design Measures (EMDN) scheme. The CINTEL programme presented in this website is currently undergoing the different formal validation processes required within the partner Universities and therefore, as yet, is not formally finalised or approved and is  thus not open for registration of students. It is the intention of the INSET consortium partners to use part or all of the contents of this website to eventually submit an application for an Erasmus Mundus Joint Masters (EMJM) course. Should such an application be successful and once the contents of the EMJM course are agreed between, and formally validated within, the partner universities this website will be updated with instructions as to when, where and how registration would take place.
