Adrion Master On Circular Economy And Bioeconomy (AMOCEAB)

We want you! Enroll in the Master’s program on Circular Economy and Bioeconomy!

Amoceab project partners planned a master’s program aimed at students on the topics Circular Economy and Bioeconomy. This Master is designed for those who wish to acquire advanced knowledge in the field of ecological transition and sustainability. The program welcomes three-year graduates in the Engineering or Economics area, interested in developing a solid knowledge to face the current challenges in the Circular Economy and Bioeconomy sector. Through a combination of frontal teaching and practical activities (laboratories), the participants will acquire the necessary skills and operational tools to support companies in managing sustainability and circular economy processes, with initial interdisciplinary engineering-management training and subsequent specialized courses based on specific topics of interest. This path will enable organizations to invest in professionals capable of responding to the needs of the changed competitive scenario and managing the changes taking place in the best possible way. The master’s degree includes an exchange period abroad of at least 6 months in the universities of the Adriatic-Ionian area, where all the lessons and activities will take place.

The “Adrion Master On Circular Economy and BioEconomy (AMOCEAB)” project, led by Prof. Dr. Borut Rončević at the School of Advanced Social Studies in Nova Gorica (FUDŠ), is a significant initiative funded by the Interreg ADRION Programme, supported by the European Regional Development Fund and the Instrument for Pre-Accession II Fund. The project is set to span nine months, commencing on January 1, 2023, and concluding on September 30, 2023.

This collaborative project involves a partnership consisting of ten partners, seven of which are universities across different countries, including:

1. Polytechnic University of Marche UNIVPM, Italy
2. Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna UNIBO, Italy
3. Particular Research Funds Account of Technical University of Crete TUC, Greece
4. Agricultural University of Tirana UBT, Albania
5. University of Sarajevo UNSA, Bosnia and Herzegovina
6. School of Advanced Social Studies in Nova Gorica FUDŠ/SASS, Slovenia
7. University of Zagreb, Faculty of Food Technology and Biotechnology FFTB UNIZG, Croatia
8. Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy, University of Belgrade, Republic of Serbia FTM-UB, Serbia
9. Chamber of Economy of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina CEFBIH, Bosnia and Herzegovina
10. Confederazione Nazionale dell’Artigianato CNA, Italy

The primary goal of the AMOCEAB project is to foster a thematic connection between Circular Economy and Bioeconomy, particularly in areas such as food waste, biomass, and bio-based products. This is achieved by creating a Transnational Network and developing a Master’s Degree Program in the ADRION Area.

The Master’s program in Circular Economy and Bioeconomy offers a comprehensive two-year English education, providing students 120 ECTS credits. This first-level Master’s degree program is accessible to graduates who have completed a three-year degree in either Engineering or Economics. It is ideal for those interested in advancing their knowledge and expertise in ecological transition and sustainability.

The program combines traditional classroom instruction with practical activities, including laboratory work. Students will acquire essential skills and operational tools needed to assist companies in managing sustainability and circular economy processes. The curriculum begins with interdisciplinary engineering and management training, followed by specialised courses tailored to specific areas of interest within the circular economy and bioeconomy sectors.

One unique feature of this Master’s program is a mandatory international exchange period lasting at least six months. During this time, students can study at partner universities within the Adriatic-Ionian region, where all lessons and activities will be conducted.

The Master’s program is a collaborative effort involving several prominent universities, including the Polytechnic University of Marche (UNIVPM), Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna (UNIBO), Technical University of Crete (TUC), Agricultural University of Tirana (UBT), University of Sarajevo (UNSA), School of Advanced Social Studies in Nova Gorica (FUDŠ/SASS), University of Zagreb (FFTB UNIZG), and Faculty of Technology and Metallurgy, University of Belgrade, Republic of Serbia (FTM-UB).

Admission to this program is open, but applicants must have completed a three-year degree in Engineering or Economics to be eligible. For further information and inquiries, interested individuals can contact Anna Laura Eusebi, PhD (a.l.eusebi@univpm.it) or Massimiliano Sgroi, PhD (m.sgroi@staff.univpm.it). This Master’s program is an excellent opportunity for those looking to make a meaningful contribution to the circular economy and bioeconomy fields.
