Being a MAIA student does not only offer great opportunities in academic terms, but also permits to get access to the global network of Erasmus Mundus alumni.

The Erasmus Mundus Students and Alumni Association (EMA) is a network of more than 9,000 graduates of Erasmus Mundus programmes. The main goals of the EMA are:

• to offer an international professional and personal network for Erasmus Mundus students and graduates,
• to promote Erasmus Mundus as a European programme of excellence and contribute to the successful internationalization of higher education,
• to foster international careers of Erasmus Mundus graduates,
• to provide a channel of communication for students, alumni, universities and the European Commission, and
• to give potential students recommendations based on the experience of previous generations;
