Another difficulty arises from the different cultural
background of the students in terms of what they take
granted, how and whether they ask critical questions,
whom they approach for help (and how), etc.
Many EMJM students are not used yet to be separated
from family and friends for such long periods. This can defi-
nitely lead to personal issues like homesickness. Thankfully,
due to the good company and friendship within the cohorts
up till now EMJM PROMISE did not encounter serious
prolonged issues of that kind.
Outlook
Funding of EMJMs is limited to four intakes. After success-
ful implementation of the program, it is possible to propose
a second funding period. In the long term however, it is
expected that high quality programs are able to establish
themselves sustainably. In order to achieve that, PROMISE
will seek to establish even closer cooperation with the rel-
evant companies. It is expected that the alumni from the
funded period will prove the benefit for the APs. This will
be essential for the intention of PROMISE to establish own
third-party funding in order to be able to attract suitable
students even after EU funding is over.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT AND CONTACT
EMJM PROMISE is co-funded as “Project 101050446—
