At the end of the two-year program, after defending their Master’s thesis before an international committee, CLE students receive two or three diplomas issued by the universities of the Consortium where they spent at least one semester and where they obtained at least 30 ECTS.

The language in which the courses are offered may vary according to the University providing them.
