Workshops & Seminars

A wide range of mandatory seminars led by guest lecturers, who may have the status of partners associated with the MISEI project, and who come from the academic and non-academic world. This helps to: a) open up theoretical frontiers, b) create connections between theory and practice, c) get to know the multitude of actors working on inclusive and socio-educational education, d) get suggestions for the topic of the master’s thesis and the internship. These seminars will take place in a hybrid format, making them accessible to students in all years of the Master’s program as well for all the students of the partners universities. NB: there will be 2 weeks per year of each cycle of annual seminars which will corresponds to 2 ECTS (4 ECTS in total) that students can use to integrate into their semester’s credits, in agreement with the teaching staff.

The Research Project Internship Line (RPIL) will represent an innovation in the learning experience. It consists in preliminary work in S1-S2-S3 to establish the basis of a successful Master thesis in S4. All along S1, they will be offered thesis topics by the consortium, including also topics offered by APs. They can of course propose their own topic to be validated by the pedagogical team. Once topics are chosen, they will work in S2 to deepen their thesis. Students will present their initial thesis topics during the summer school beginning of September. S3 will serve to go deeper in the definition of the thesis scope and lines of research. Through this activity, students will (i) experience a collaborative work over a long period of time (ii) have the opportunity to report their work in a professional environment (oral presentation, written report) and adapt their roadmap to meet the objectives. This activity will be monitored by academic supervisors (professors) provided by the full partners.

The PCDP will boost an effective path to the Master diploma and job market integration. At their arrival in S1, an individual assessment of the competencies of the students will be jointly made between the local coordinators and the students. On the basis of this assessment, the students will build their PCDP together to ensure a successful personalized mobility plan in line with their career plan. There will be an update of the PCDP every 3 months. This plan will follow the EC template and include short term and long-term career objectives (2 to 5 years), Master thesis and internship objectives back-up with the RPIL work, the soft-skills training plan necessary for career needs and skills requirements for the chosen career.
