2026 Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree on Electric Vehicle Propulsion and Control (EPICO) Scholarship

E-PiCo+ is a 2-year International Master programme devised to train students in the field of electric propulsion with its control, to be future experts in Electric Vehicles (EVs). It will provide technical and scientific solutions for making EVs:

• More affordable whilst ensuring high standards of safety and reliability
• Providers of electricity in the near future
• More accessible by transforming ICE-conventional based vehicles to EV (Retrofit)

By doing so, the students will be at the forefront of the global energy transformation. The E-PiCo+ master's programme is thus aligned with the world's growing need for EVs (in industries, infrastructures, etc.) and trains future EV experts capable of dealing with the energy transition. The programme is fully taught in English and implies mobility within a minimum of two countries among 4 EU and 1 outside EU institutions.
