INTERNATIONAL MASTER

IN PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF SPORT

(ERASMUS MUNDUS JOINT MASTER DEGREE)

The "Master of Science, Performance Analysis in Sport" is an inter-university master course that involves three European universities: Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg (Germany), Universidade de Trás-os-Montes e Alto Douro in Vila Real (Portugal), and the Lithuanian Sports University in Kaunas (Lithuania).

The master relies on the mobility resources of the Erasmus scheme, for students to be able to complete their academic programme in the three universities.

Each of the university recruits students to the course to study together during three semesters in each of the European countries. IMPAS is a 2-year 4-semesters 120 European Credit Transfer System (ECTS) study program. During the first year of this study program, you will undertake two study modules, first at Otto-von-Guericke University and then, during the spring semester, at University of Trás-os-Montes and Alto Douro. In this year, four modules will be taught, two at each university, where each module provides 15 ECTS. For each year of study you are required to accrue 60 ECTS.

Year 2 starts with two modules at the Lithuanian Sports University, and finishes with two modules that should be accomplished in the registered university - Applied Scientific Work (10 ECTS) and the Research Project/Master Thesis (20 ECTS). The Master Thesis writing and submission process will be managed by your registered university, although the students may propose to be co-supervised by a teacher from another IMPAS university By completion of the course you need to have obtained 120 ECTS credits to graduate.

This Master of Science degree generally starts in winter semesters only.
