About RADMEP+
A European Master programme at the intersection of radiation, microelectronics
and photonics, designed to prepare students for advanced technologies in radiation, microelectronics and photonics.
A multidisciplinary and innovative programme
The RADMEP+ programme is a 2-year (120 ECTS) European Master of Science focused on the study of radiation effects on microelectronics and photonics technologies.
It provides a unique multidisciplinary approach combining physics, engineering and applied sciences.
Students develop both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to understand, model and mitigate radiation effects in complex technological environments.
Why radiation effects matter ?
Radiation effects play a critical role in many strategic domains including space, nuclear energy, medicine and transportation systems. Today, with the rapid evolution of technologies, these effects impact not only extreme environments but also everyday systems.
- Space technologies and satellite systems
- New generation power plants (fusion and fission)
- Autonomous and electric vehicles
- Aviation and aerospace electronics
- Medical devices and advanced computing systems
As systems become more integrated and sensitive, understanding radiation effects is essential to ensure reliability, safety and performance.
Programme Structure
RADMEP+ follows a mobility-based structure across European partner universities.
- Semester 1: University of Jyväskylä (Finland)
- Semester 2 & 3: Specialisation tracks
Students choose between two tracks:
Radiation & Photonics
Semester 2 at VUB & UGent (Belgium)
Semester 3 at UJM (France)
Radiation & Microelectronics
Semester 2 at KU Leuven (Belgium)
Semester 3 at University of Montpellier (France)
Students from both tracks share selected lectures and workshops, fostering collaboration.
Master thesis and professional experience
All students complete a 6-month Master’s thesis in an industrial company, research center or agency.
They benefit from a strong international network of over 55 academic, industrial and institutional partners.
