  • Projects for the joint development of "study programmes" at intermediate or advanced (Masters - type) level;
  • Projects for the joint development of European "modules", including specialized language modules;
  • Projects for implementation and dissemination of curricular development projects which have completed their development phase.

The results of curricular development projects should have the potentional to be disseminated to a large group of institutions, other than those directly involved in the project.
